Begel 8707 A/B 1:1 Clear Two components soft silicone gel elastomer

  • Fast room temperature cure
  • Elastomer-like toughness
  • Protection from moisture, dirt, and other atmosphericcontaminants
  • Protection from mechanical stress and strain caused bythermomechanical shock and vibration
  • Easy repairability
  • Good dielectric properties, even at high frequencies
  • No solvents or cure by-products
  • Physical and electrical stability over a wide temperaturerange from -40° to 200°C

BeGel 8707 is a two component silicone elastomer that crosslinks at room temperature by polyaddition reaction. The pueolymerisation can be accelerated by heat.

Processing

  1. Mixing the two components

BeGel 8707 A & B are mixed by weight in a fixed ratio given above.

 

The two components may be thoroughly mixed either by hand or using a low-speed electric or pneumatic mixer to minimise the introduction of air and to avoid any temperature increase.

 

Note: It is also possible to use a special mixing and dispensing machine for the two silicone

components.

Further information is available upon request.

 

2 .  Handling

The mixture should be degassed preferably at 30 to 50 mbar to eliminate any entrapped air. If a dispensing machine is used, the two components are degassed separately prior to mixing.

 

The silicone mixture expands to 3 to 4 times of its initial volume and bubbles rise to the surface .The bubbles progressively disappear and the mixture returns to its initial volume after 2 to 3 minutes. Wait a few minutes to complete the degassing and then flash the vacuum. The silicone is ready for pouring, either by gravity or under low pressure.

 

Note: Flashing the vacuum once or twice accelerates the degassing. It is recommended to use a container with a high diameter/height ratio(3 to 4 times of the initial volume)

 

 

 

3 .  Polymerisation

The system, as indicated in the technical data, polymerises at 25℃ .The curing may be slowed down at lower temperature and contrary accelerated by applying heat.

 

Note: in general contact with certain materials can inhibit the crosslinking of RTV.

See list below:

  • Natural rubbers vulcanised with sulphur
  • RTV elastomers catalysed with metal salts,e.g. tin compounds
  • PVC stabilised with tin salts and additives
  • Epoxy catalysed with amines
  • Certain organic solvents, e.g.Ketones, alcohols, ether  etc.
