This T 40 paste catalyst is primarily intended for the kneadable Wacker Elastosil M 1470.

Processing

The condensation hardening silicone can be easily mixed by hand. Mix the A and B components carefully and in the specified ratio.

T40 mixture = 2%, so for 100 grams of A component you use 2 grams of Wacker T40 paste (B component).

You can use 0.5% less or more hardener. If you use less hardener, the curing takes longer and air bubbles have more time to escape. Be careful not to use too little hardener, because then the silicone may not harden (properly). With more hardener, the curing will go faster, so the mold is ready sooner. The disadvantage is that the mold will also age sooner and will shrink more.

Process the mixture within the pot life (processing time) and never mix more than you can process within the pot life. Wait with de-moulding until the whole has completely hardened.

Please note: Potlife (processing time) and de-moulding time are strongly dependent on the mixing ratio and humidity! When adding more silicone B (hardener) or at higher humidity the potlife and de-moulding time will be shorter!

Shelf life
Provided the silicone is stored in a closed container, cool and frost-free, the shelf life is at least 1 year.

Safety requirements
Wear splash goggles, suitable liquid-tight gloves, an apron and work in a well-ventilated area. See Safety Data Sheet for more information
