ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE PT GREEN RAL 6032 F

ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE PT GREEN RAL 6032 F is a ready-to-use masterbatch comprising specific pigments and reactive silicone polymers which are commonly used to produce ELASTOSIL® high-consistency silicone rubber.

This ensures a homogeneous covulcanization of the color paste without significant impairment of the physical properties (e.g. hardness) and without migration as it may be observed for systems based on silicone oil.



Properties

ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE PT GREEN RAL 6032 F is ready-to-use and can be easily incorporated on an open roll mill or kneader. ELASTOSIL® Color Pastes PT can be blended with each other to achieve the desired color shade.

The colors have generally a good resis­tance to sunlight, UV and hot air. The resistance should be checked for individual cases, especially for long term applications. If the dosage recom­mendations are followed, the mechanical pro­perties of the colored vulcanizates will not be significantly impaired.

Specific features of ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE PT GREEN RAL 6032 F

  • Additive
  • BfR compliant
  • FDA compliant

ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE PT GREEN RAL 6032 F has been developed particularly for coloring ELASTOSIL® R and ELASTOSIL® R plus high consistency silicone rubber.

ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE PT GREEN RAL 6032 F may be used for coloring silicone parts intended for sensitive applications and complying with the “Recommendation XV. Silicones" and “IX. Pigments for coloring plastics" of the BfR and FDA Regulation CFR 21 § 177.2600 "Rubber Articles Intended for Repeated Use" under observance of any given limitations on extractable and volatile substances. Please see the actual Product Compliance Sheet of this product and/or the separate Food Contact Statement for detailed information about food contact including information about any limitation in view of dosage and/or condition of use that may apply for this product.

ELASTOSIL® COLOR PASTE PT GREEN RAL 6032  F is compatible with Curing Agents C1, C6, and E for peroxide curing ELASTOSIL® R grades and is also fully compatible with addition curing ELASTOSIL® R plus grades.

Incorporation into ELASTOSIL® R and ELASTOSIL® R plus grades is best performed on an open roll mill. Preferably, the curing agent is incorporated at the same time. The color paste is homogeneously dispersed when the rubber stock has a uniform color. Customers may produce other colors by mixing the pigment pastes. Suggestions for formulations can be made on request.

A dosage of 1% ELASTOSIL® Color Paste PT is generally recommended to obtain opaque vulcanisates. For the manufacture of thin-walled parts and for rubber grades containing non-reinforcing fillers (e.g. quartz, diatomaceous earth) or colored additives (e.g. ELASTOSIL® AUX Stabilizer R, ELASTOSIL® AUX Batch SB 2) an increase of the dosage to 2 - 3% will be useful. The concentration should be kept at a minimum. In individual cases an excess of color paste may slow down the curing characteristics.

Packaging
