Mold Max® Silicones are tin-cured silicone rubber compounds that have exceptional working properties and library life. Mold Max® Silicones feature Smooth-On's exclusive "Libra®" catalyst for long library life. Mold Max® silcones can be pigmented with Silc Pig® silicone colorants. Pot life for the pourable silicones is 45 minutes and they cure overnight at room temperature.
Mold Max® Silicones will reproduce the finest detail and are suitable for a variety of industrial and art related applications including making molds for reproducing prototypes, furniture, sculpture and architectural elements. Mold Max® 10, 20, 25 and 30 silicones can be thickened with THI-VEX® additive for brush-on applications. (Note: THI-VEX® is NOT compatible with Mold Max® 40 or 60). Mold Max® 60 offers highest heat resistance for casting metal (see separate technical bulletin).
Mold Max® Silicones can be used to cast a variety of materials including wax, gypsum, low melt alloys/metals and urethane, epoxy or polyester resins (without using a release agent).
