Silastic TM RTV-4130-J Base and Curing agent, also known as Silastic J, is a two-part addition cure silicone commonly used for molding due to its dimensional stability. The material has a wide variety of applications that the paper will address.
This paper will explore applications and functionality of the Dow material Sylgard 184. Pure Sylgard 184 is a “Two-part, clear, 10:1, RT and heat cure, good strength, UL and Mil Spec” material that has good dielectric properties. According to the Technical Data Sheet, Sylgard 184 has a base viscosity of 511 cP, mixed viscosity of 3500 cP, and a work time of 1.5 hours. The cured mate rial has a Shore A hardness of 43, a tensile strength of 980 PSI, and a dielectric strength of 500 volts/mil.
