High oil-bleeding liquid silicone rubbers of the ELASTOSIL® LR 3856 series are paste-like, easily pigmentable two-component products with short curing times and very good demoldability (high hot tear resistance). Shortly after curing a thin oil film with lubricating properties forms on the surface. The vulcanizates are opaque, have very good mechanical and electrical properties, excellent cut resistance, and low compression set without post-cure.
