Elkem (Bluestar Silicones) BLUESIL™ RTV 1556 B Silicone Rubber
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Silicone; Silicone Rubber

Material Notes: Description: BLUESIL™ RTV 1556 is a two component, high strength, addition cure, room temperature or heat vulcanized silicone rubber compound. Designed specifically for moldmaking applications, it offers low viscosity, high tear cut resistance, and easy release for long lasting molds. BLUESIL™ RTV 1556 has high temperature and chemical resistance with excellent flexibility, low shrinkage, and excellent detail reproduction which makes it well suited for production and prototyping use with all types of casting resins.

Applications:

  • Conventional production and prototype molds
  • Giftware, furniture, and artistic molding
  • Finished rubber parts
  • Electronic encapsulation
  • Stereolithography (SLA) molds
  • Epoxy laminate molding
  • Picture frames, mirrors, and furniture molding
