Silicone Rubber

We have seen how it gets to the silicon siloxane chains, in which silicon atoms alternate with oxygen atoms.

When the siloxane chains bind in place of hydrogen atoms of the organic radicals, it comes to so-called silicon compounds, which are acidic macromolecules, with particular resistance to heat.

Some types of silanes (macromolecular compounds acidic), characterized by particular organic radicals, are separated, purified, hydrolyzed, and through the elimination of molecules of H ₂ O, come to form chains siloxane, which may be linear, branched, cyclic or three-dimensional .

Linear siloxane chains are very well, through a process of vulcanization, cross-linked to the creation of bridges between them, coming to originate silicone elastomer also known as "silicone rubbers".

The RTV silicone rubber is an elastomer Raytech Ray dual component rapid curing at room temperature and that, thanks to the characteristics of elasticity, heat sealing, low lacerabilità can be used for a large number of applications.

They are electrically insulating, highly elastic, have virtually no linear shrinkage and, because these features are used in the creation of small print in draft, to give such an extreme fidelity and ease of extraction, production of accessories for stamping or pad printing, such as buffers shock.

Due to the absence of harm may be employed in the food industry, even in the medical field or footwear, industry, handicrafts, in modeling and DIY.

They are available in various colors and different curing times and Shore hardness.
