Silicone Gel (G-2000 Series)

G-2000 A/B  Platinum Base, two‑part silicone rubber designed for embedding, electrical applications, and gel products. Silicone Gels are used in a variety of applications and provide unique surface absorbing qualities, movement, and self healing properties. G-2000 is readily available in three hardnesses: FIRM, MEDIUM, and SOFT Gel.

Mixing Instructions:
The base and curing agent are mixed just before using. Mix 10 parts base to 1 part curing agent by weight. Automatic mixing equipment or manual mixing may be used to combine base and curing agent. Immediately after mixing, place the material in a vacuum chamber to remove trapped air. As the vacuum is drawn, the material will expand as much as four times its original volume. Remove from vacuum chamber and pour very gently, so as not to trap air into the material.

INHIBITION:
Certain materials will cause inhibition or neutralization of the curing agent. These materials are sulfur containing organo-metallic salt containing compounds such as organic rubbers and many condensation cure RTV chloride solvents ‑ amines. Inhibition may easily be determined by brushing a small quantity of G-2000 A/B over a localized area of the surface to be reproduced. If the G-2000 A/B is gummy or uncured after the curing time, then the mold surface is acting as an inhibitor.

CURING:
G-2000 Series are a room temperature curing silicone that can be cured quicker by the addition of heat.--heat ranges of 100F to 200F is recommended. Silicone primer maybe applied to substrate / surface for adhesion.
