Product Description
Smooth‑Sil™ 936
Smooth-Sil™ Platinum Silicones cure at room temperature with negligible shrinkage. With different hardnesses to choose from, Smooth-Sil™ products offer tremendous versatility and are suitable for making production molds of any configuration, large or small. These silicones exhibit good chemical, abrasion and heat resistance. Materials such as plasters, concrete, wax, low-melt metal alloys or resins (urethane, epoxy or polyester) can then be cast into these silicone rubbers without a release agent.
Smooth-Sil™ 936 is a lower viscosity platinum silicone rubber (21,000 cps). It is easier to mix, vacuum degas and pour. Smooth-Sil™ Platinum Silicones are used for rapid prototyping, wax casting (foundries and candle makers), architectural restoration and for casting concrete.
EpoxAmite™ 101
EpoxAmite™ 101 is an easy-to-use liquid epoxy system formulated for a wide variety of fabrication applications. EpoxAmite™ 101 includes the EpoxAmite™ 100 Base and the EpoxAmite™ 101 FAST Hardener. EpoxAmite™ 101 is unfilled, low in viscosity, odorless and cures at room temperature. Cured epoxy displays exceptional physical and performance properties. It can be sanded, shaped, machined, drilled, tapped and painted.
EpoxAmite™ 101 can be used with reinforcements such as S-Glass, E-Glass, Kevlar and Carbon fibers for lay-up applications or composite parts. EpoxAmite™ 101 can also be mixed with fillers such as fumed silica for gel coat applications. Urefil™ 3, Urefil™ 7 and other fillers can be added for fairing, filleting or bonding applications.
Applications: Wet Lay-Up Lamination, General Bonding & Repair, Clear Coating - Gel Coating, Barrier Coating, Thin-Section Casting, Water Proofing, Patching & Small Laminates
Also available: EpoxAmite™ 102 MEDIUM SET and EpoxAmite™ 103 SLOW SET
