Silicone Oil Thinner – 1 Gallon

$83.00

AeroMarine Products Silicone Thinner is a silicone fluid that will lower the mixed viscosity of tin and platinum cure silicone rubbers.
This product reduces the viscosity of your silicone, making it easier to get it into small details and helps to improve degassing by making trapped air bubbles escape more readily.
Only use our Silicone Thinner with 10:1 tin and platinum based catalyst silicones. Do not use Silicone Thinner with simple 1:1 silicones!
This is the 1 gallon size, smaller sizes are available.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Features:

Lowers mixed viscosity
Reduces air bubbles
Flows better over intricate parts
Effects on cured silicone: Tear strength, tensile strength and shore hardness are reduced in proportion to how much silicone thinner is used.
AeroMarine Products Silicone Thinner will increase the pot life of the silicone and will slow the rate at which it cures.
Store at room temperature/70F and out of direct sunlight!

Property Change Estimates:

Every project is different, when in doubt, always do a small test!
When adding 5% of AeroMarine Silicone Thinner to your silicone rubber, it will reduce the mixed viscosity by 24%, the shore hardness by 13%, the tensile strength by 13% and the tear strength by 12%.
When adding 10% of AeroMarine Silicone Thinner to your silicone rubber, it will reduce the mixed viscosity by 45%, the shore hardness by 23%, the tensile strength by 18% and the tear strength by 16%.

HOW-TO:

Mixing:

Add AeroMarine Products Silicone Thinner (no more than 10%) to Part A (white silicone base).
When desired viscosity is achieved, weigh out the correct amount of Part B (catalyst) and mix according to instructions for the 10:1 silicone that you are using.
The amount of catalyst used will be calculated from the total weight of the silicone base with the thinner added, not the weight of the silicone base prior to adding the thinner.
