Product Description
Dragon Skin™ 10 SLOW
Dragon Skin™ silicones are high performance platinum cure liquid silicone compounds that are used for a variety of applications ranging from creating skin effects and other movie special effects to making production molds for casting a variety of materials. Because of the superior physical properties and flexibility of Dragon Skin™ rubbers, they are also used for medical prosthetics and cushioning applications. Dragon Skin™ rubbers are also used for a variety of industrial applications and have a service temperature range of a constant -65°F to +450°F (-53°C to +232°C)
Mold Max™ XLS™ II
Mold Max™ XLS™ II is a Shore 30A tin-catalyzed silicone mold rubber that exhibits very low long-term shrinkage. XLS™ II molds last longer than other silicones in production when casting chemically harsh resins such as epoxies and polyesters as well as urethane foams.
Mix ratio is 100A:10B by weight. Pot life is 40 minutes and cure time is 24 hours at room temperature. Mold Max™ XLS™ II silicone will reproduce the finest detail and is suitable for a variety of industrial and art related applications including making production molds for, reproducing prototypes, furniture, sculpture and architectural elements. Mold Max™ XLS™ II can be thickened with THI‑VEX™ additive for brush-on applications.
Vacuum degassing mixed material using a vacuum pump and chamber to remove entrapped air is recommended.
