A Press Release-UV/RTV Dual Cure Silicone Polymer System

UV/RTV Dual Cure Silicone Polymer System

 

A uniquely versatile, one component, UV/RTV curable silicone compound for
bonding, sealing and coating called UV71DC, has been introduced by Master
Bond, Inc. Hackensack, N.J... While the rapid cure benefits of UV polymer
systems are well known, there are complex product geometries which interdict
its use.  Master Bond's UV/RTV dual cure products are formulated to react
with both ultraviolet light and atmospheric humidity. When exposed to a
source of UV light of appropriate wave length and intensity, it cures in
seconds to produce optically clear, durable, flexible, non-yellowing and
chemically resistant adhesives, sealants or coatings with excellent
electrical insulation properties. The moisture cure feature assures that the
material cures successfully on complex parts where exposure to UV light is
difficult or impossible to achieve. Alternatively, pure RTV cures can be
accomplished within 24 hours at ambient temperatures or faster at elevated
temperatures.  

 

Master Bond’s UV71DC, UV and/or RTV cured polymer system can be employed
over the wide temperature range of -62°C to 205°C (-80 to 400°F). Cured
adhesives exhibit a most desirable combination of properties including
outstanding durability, flexibility, thermal shock resistance as well as
excellent adhesion to many different substrates ranging from glass and
aluminum to polyester films and polycarbonates. It has been formulated to
have a refractive index of 1.41, a volume thermal expansion coefficient of
10cc/cc/°C, a tensile strength of 110 psi and a Shore A Hardness of 25.
