Silopren LSR 2650 is a two-component liquid silicone rubber for injection molding processes. In comparison to Silopren LSR 2050, Silopren LSR 2650 shows a lower viscosity, improved tear resistance and a higher reactivity. Therefore, it is also possible to reduce the vulcanization temperature while maintaining a standard crosslinking rate. The increased reactivity does not affect the properties of the vulcanizate.
Key Features and Benefits
Vulcanizates of Silopren LSR 2650 are typically distinguished by the following properties:
- High reactivity, lower viscosity, shorter cycle time
- Excellent thermal stability
- Sterilizable with ethylene oxide, steam and gamma radiation
- High stability and flexibility at low temperatures
- Good rubber-like properties, high tear resistance
- Long service life at dynamic stress
- High stability to ozone and ultraviolet light
- Outstanding resistance to aging
- Excellent dielectric behavior over a wide range of temperatures
- Easily pigmentable with LSR color pastes
Potential Applications
Because of its outstanding properties, Silopren LSR 2650 is an excellent candidate to consider for the following elastomeric articles:
- Catheters, parts of medical technical equipment s.o.
