Q1: What is the typical mixing ratio of Part A to Part B for Dow SILASTIC RBL-9694-45M?
A: This two-part LSR system is formulated for a precise 1:1 by weight mixing ratio, ensuring consistent cure behavior and optimal mechanical performance across production batches.
Q2: Is RBL-9694-45M suitable for high-temperature overmolding onto thermoplastics?
A: Yes — its low-viscosity, fast-curing profile and excellent adhesion to common engineering thermoplastics (e.g., PC, ABS, PBT) make it well-suited for automated overmolding processes, including those requiring rapid cycle times and thermal stability up to 200 °C.
Q3: Does this material require post-cure to achieve full physical properties?
A: While RBL-9694-45M achieves functional crosslinking during standard mold curing, a controlled post-cure step is recommended to maximize compression set resistance, thermal stability, and long-term extractables performance—especially for demanding sealing or medical device applications.
Q4: Can RBL-9694-45M be used in applications requiring biocompatibility?
A: This grade is designed with USP Class VI and ISO 10993-compliant raw materials and may be suitable for certain biocompatible applications; however, final regulatory qualification must be performed by the end-user based on specific device design, processing conditions, and intended use.
