  • Best Practices for Momentive RTV615

    *See Terms of Use Below

    1. Mixing

      Select a mixing container 4-5 times larger than the volume of RTV silicone rubber compound to be used. Weigh out ten parts of the A component and one part of the B component. Since RTV615, RTV655 and RTV656 silicone rubber compounds are kit-matched, work time (or pot life), cure time, and final properties of the cured RTV silicone rubber compound can be assured only if the A component is used with the B component from the same kit.

      With clean tools, thoroughly mix the A and B components together, scraping the sides and bottom of the container carefully to produce a homogeneous mixture. When using power mixers, avoid excessive speeds which could entrap large amounts of air or cause overheating of the mixture, resulting in shorter pot life.

    2. Deairing/Degassing

      Air entrapped during mixing should be removed to eliminate voids in the cured product. Expose the mixed material to a vacuum of about 25 mm (29 in.) of mercury. The material will expand, crest, and recede to approximately the original level as the bubbles break. Degassing is usually complete approximately two minutes after frothing ceases. When using the RTV silicone rubber compound for potting, a deaeration step may be necessary after pouring to avoid capturing air in complex assemblies.

    3. Curing

      RTV615, RTV655 and RTV656 silicone rubber compounds will cure sufficiently in 24 hours at 25ºC (77ºF) to permit handling. To achieve optimum properties an elevated temperature cure or a cure time of 7 days at room temperature is required.
