Product Description
Mold Max™ 29NV
Mold Max™ 29NV is a Shore 29A tin-catalyzed silicone mold rubber that offers low viscosity, fast cure and long library life.
Mold Max™ 29NV does not require vacuum degassing. Mix ratio is 100A:10B by weight. Working time is 45 minutes and cure time is 6 hours at room temperature.
Mold Max™ 29NV will reproduce the finest detail and is suitable for a variety of industrial and art related applications including making molds for reproducing prototypes, furniture, sculpture and architectural elements. Cure time can be reduced with Accel-T™ cure accelerator. Mold Max™ 29NV can be used to cast a variety of materials including wax, gypsum, low melt alloys/metals and urethane, epoxy or polyester resins. Important: Do not cast concrete into rubber molds made with this product. Concrete will not cure properly and inhibition will result.
Important; you must weigh Part A & B components using a gram scale to be successful with Mold Max™ 29NV.
ReoFlex™ 20
ReoFlex™ urethane rubbers offer superior physical and performance properties for production casting of wax, plasters, and resins. ReoFlex™ urethanes are available in 20A, 30A, 40A, 50A and 60A Shore hardnesses and feature convenient one-to-one by volume mix ratios. Vacuum degassing is not necessary and ReoFlex™ rubbers cure with negligible shrinkage to a durable rubber that will last in production. ReoFlex™ “Wet” rubbers will shrink somewhat over time vs. “Dry” formulations.
ReoFlex™ mold rubbers are used for a variety of applications including making molds to reproduce sculpture and architectural elements, as well as for making special effects, toys and prototypes. Vibrant colors can be achieved by adding So-Strong™ Color Tints, available from Smooth-On.
Casting Concrete? Look into the VytaFlex™ series of urethane mold rubbers. VytaFlex™ urethanes were formulated specifically for casting concrete / pigmented concrete and feature Smooth-On’s exclusive ‘V-Polymer™’ technology.
