Bluesil Additive PC Thixo is a special thixotropic additive for the Bluesil RTV-2 polycondensation range (RTV 3325) — enabling application with a brush/spatula on vertical models.
Bluesil additives modify the rheology, thixotropy, or surface properties of Bluesil RTV systems, paints, or inks. The PC Thixo additive is tailored to specific applications—its key properties and areas of use are listed below.
Bluesil additive PC THIXO 0.2–0.5% modifies the flow behavior of Bluesil RTV-2 polycondensation systems such as RTV 3325 — the mixture becomes highly viscous and can be applied with a brush or spatula to vertical models, low reliefs, and overhanging geometries. Demolding time is 16 hours after application.

Frequently asked questions about PC Thixo additive
Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.
Bluesil PC Thixo Additive: Special thixotropic additive for the Bluesil RTV-2 polycondensation series (RTV 3325) — enables application with a brush/spatula on vertical models. Main applications: Vertical models, low reliefs, overhanging geometries.
The exact dosage depends on the application — typically 0.2–2% w/w. For paints and varnishes, add after pigment grinding. For RTV thixotropy additives: add to the mixed RTV base and catalyst. Test compatibility in a preliminary trial before use — excessive dosage may impair interlayer adhesion.
Store in the unopened original container in a dry, cool place — typically between +5 and +30 °C, see TDS for exact values. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Observe the expiry date on the packaging — Elkem guarantees the product's specifications only until the date shown.
