RTVS 42 CURTIS II
SILICONE-EPOXY COPOLYMER/CASTING COMPOUND

DESCRIPTION

RRTVS 42 CURTIS II is a low viscosity unique silicone-epoxy co-polymer formulated to withstand severe thermal shock, low moisture absorption and excellent dielectric insulation.

RTVS 42 CURTIS II contains silane adhesion promoters that enable it to bond well to most metals and plastics. Its unique chemistry combines the low temperature performance characteristics heretofore found only in silicones with the excellent encapsulating properties of epoxies.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Pre-mix RTVS 42 CURTIS II base before use to be sure any settled filler is reincorporated.
2. Weigh out amount of base component required. Weigh into 100 parts base, 4.8 parts of catalyst.
3. Mix thoroughly, scraping both the bottom and side of the mixing container.
4. To ensure void free castings RTVS 42 CURTIS II may be placed in a vacuum chamber and at about 29 inches of mercury. Vacuum for 5-10 minutes. Caution - Excessive vacuuming will lengthen cure time.
5. Proceed to use material.
