Data sheets
The compounds are recommended for all kinds of seals that come into contact with mineral oils.
ELASTOSIL® R 701/40 S is used especially when low compression set is crucial for achieving good seal properties. The compounds may also be used for making high quality silicone-rubber-covered rollers.
The raw rubber requires the addition of peroxides for vulcanization at elevated temperatures. A homogeneous incorporation is a must to maintain best processing behavior. Pot life is depending on the used peroxide and storage condition. Please consider the technical data sheet of the corresponding curing agent.
For detailed information please refer to the latest edition of our brochure "SOLID AND LIQUID SILICONE RUBBER - MATERIAL AND PROCESSING GUIDELINES".
