HEAT CURED SILICONE RUBBER IOTA HCR 360 U
Description:IOTA HCR 360 U is a very transparent silicone Master-Batch, vulcanizing after heating following addition of a vulcanizing agent (chosen according to the transformation procedure).
Applications:Molding and extrusion of transparent parts with high mechanical properties.
Special properties:
Slight replastifying
Easy processability
Short post-curing
Very good tear resistance
High stability up to 200℃
Highly transparent
Large possibilities of blending with other master batches.
Bright colors easily obtained with SC color bases from IOTA
