Can be Cured via Platinum or Peroxide
Description
- A unique three-part system, VersaSil3 offers the flexibility of adjustable cure rate and table life for various fabrication requirements
- High tear strength, wide processing parameters, and translucent, non-tacky surfaces
- Developed to be compounded with the inhibitor CAT-40 and the platinum catalyst CAT-55. Advantages include: no volatile by-products, lower cure temperature, and optional post-cure
- 100: 1.0: 1.0 Mix Ratio
Applications
- For mass production with maximum flexibility
- For a wide variety of fabrication techniques for the healthcare industry including: molding, calendering and extruding
NuSil Technology’s VersaSil3 Series shall not be considered for use in human implantation for a period of greater than 29 days.
