Solvay MI307 Catalyst – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application of Solvay MI307 Catalyst?

A: Solvay MI307 Catalyst is specifically designed to accelerate condensation-cure reactions in silicone elastomer systems, particularly for high-performance liquid silicone rubber (LSR) formulations used in medical, automotive, and precision industrial applications.


Q2: Is Solvay MI307 compatible with platinum-cure silicone systems?

A: No — Solvay MI307 is a tin-based catalyst formulated for condensation-cure silicones and is not intended for use in addition-cure (platinum-cure) systems. It may inhibit or interfere with platinum catalysts if cross-contaminated.


Q3: How should Solvay MI307 Catalyst be handled and stored?

A: Store in tightly sealed original containers under cool, dry conditions away from moisture, strong oxidizing agents, and direct sunlight. Handle using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), as it is moisture-sensitive and may hydrolyze upon prolonged exposure to ambient humidity.


Q4: What is the typical dosage range for Solvay MI307 in LSR formulations?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired cure profile, but it is typically used at low concentrations — generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to the base polymer — and should be optimized via small-scale trials.
