- Addition Curing
- Excellent mechanical properties
- Flowable
- No chemical shrinkage
- Resistance against casting resins
- Two-component
Data sheets
Due to its outstanding resistance to casting resins as well as its superior mechanical properties ELASTOSIL® M 4642 A/B is perfectly suitable for all molds of models with undercuts that are to be reproduced in casting resins, and a certain inherent rigidity of the molds is required.
As a medium-Shore addition-curing RTV-2 silicone rubber that cures without undergoing dimensional shrinkage, ELASTOSIL® M 4642 A/B is also extremely suitable for casting all other common reproduction materials, particularly if absolutely accurate copies of models with undercuts are required.
Detailed instructions for preparation and use are given in the brochure “Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) Silicones - Material and Processing Guidelines”.
Important note:
The platinum catalyst is in component B.
Caution:
A and B components may only be used together if they have the same batch number.
Storage
The 'Best use before end' date of each batch is shown on the product label.
Storage beyond the date specified on the label does not necessarily mean that the product is no longer usable. In this case however, the properties required for the intended use must be checked for quality assurance reasons.
