- Steam resistant
Data sheets
ELASTOSIL® R 755/60 OH is suitable for extrusion of tubings and profiles and for compression, transfer and injection molding.
Although most silicone rubbers show good resistance to boiling water, they degrade rapidly when subjected to superheated steam at temperatures of 160 °C and above (corresponding to 6 bar pressure)
ELASTOSIL® R 755/60 OH resists steam at a temperature of 160 °C for over 2 months.
The raw rubber requires the addition of peroxides for vulcanization at elevated temperatures. A homogeneous incorporation is a must to maintain best processing behavior. Pot life is depending on the used peroxide and storage condition. Please consider the technical data sheet of the corresponding curing agent.
For detailed information refer to our latest brochure "SOLID AND LIQUID SILICONE RUBBER - MATERIAL AND PROCESSING GUIDELINES".
