[Industrial Insight]
Addressing the urgent demand for high-efficiency sealing materials in the food processing and medical equipment sectors, a company's IOTA LSR 3040 series liquid silicone rubber recently passed authoritative testing. Its rapid curing characteristics and food safety compliance have sparked widespread discussion in the industry.
[Key Technological Breakthrough]
Unlike traditional materials that require prolonged vulcanization at temperatures above 120°C, this series can fully cure in just 90 seconds at 130°C. After curing, the hardness stabilizes at 40 Shore A, ensuring a soft texture while maintaining sufficient elasticity. Test data show that its tear strength reaches 35KN/m, far exceeding industry standards.
[Enhanced Safety Performance]
The material has obtained FDA food contact certification, with heavy metal migration controlled at levels below ppb. In a 72-hour simulated test at a dairy company, no leaching substances were detected, and the compression set rate was below 5%.
[Innovative Application Cases]
A medical device manufacturer used this material to develop infusion tubing, which successfully passed the ISO 10993 biocompatibility test. Its unique mold release properties improved surface smoothness by 40% after demolding, effectively reducing subsequent processing steps.
[Operational Guidelines]
Technical documentation emphasizes that components A and B must be mixed from the same batch, and it is recommended to use a nitrogen-protected environment to prevent catalyst poisoning. Laboratory data indicate that for every 10% improvement in mixing uniformity, the product pass rate increases by 2.3 percentage points.
