Dow SILASTIC RBL-9694-20P A&B Liquid Silicone Rubber – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of RBL-9694-20P A&B in liquid silicone rubber formulations?

A: RBL-9694-20P A&B is a platinum-catalyzed, two-part addition-cure liquid silicone rubber system designed for high-performance molding applications requiring excellent mechanical properties, thermal stability, and low compression set—commonly used in medical devices, automotive seals, and precision technical parts.


Q2: Is this material suitable for medical or food-contact applications?

A: RBL-9694-20P A&B is formulated to meet common regulatory expectations for biocompatibility and extractables control when fully cured; however, end-use compliance depends on final part geometry, processing conditions, and post-cure protocols. Users must validate suitability per applicable regional requirements and intended application.


Q3: How should RBL-9694-20P A&B be mixed and processed?

A: Components A and B must be thoroughly mixed in the specified ratio using static or dynamic mixing equipment to ensure homogeneous dispersion of the platinum catalyst. Processing is typically performed via injection molding or transfer molding at elevated temperatures (e.g., 100–180 °C), with cure time dependent on part thickness and thermal mass.


Q4: Does this LSR require post-curing, and why?

A: Post-curing is recommended—especially for critical applications—to maximize crosslink density, minimize residual volatiles, and enhance long-term thermal and mechanical stability. The necessity and conditions depend on the target performance profile and end-use environment.
