processing

1
Stir up the RTV base
Homogenize the RTV base before adding the catalyst — avoid sedimentation of the fillers.
2
Dosing catalyst
Precise dosage: typically 5% w/w (see TDS for exact value). Dose by weight — volumetric dosing is inaccurate.
3
Mix carefully
Low-speed agitator — until no streak is visible (homogeneous color).
4
Degas
30–50 mbar vacuum for bubble-free crosslinking.
5
Process
Pour, smooth, or apply within the pot life — pot life depends on the catalyst and temperature.

Frequently asked questions about CATA 24 H

Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.

Bluesil CATA 24 H: Standard tin catalyst for the Bluesil RTV condensation series (3221, 3318, 3325, 3450) with a 24-hour demolding time — odorless, proven in lost-wax and decoration casting. Main applications: lost-wax molds, decoration reproduction, model-making molds.

The standard dosage is 5 parts catalyst to 100 parts RTV base (5% w/w). The exact dosage affects the pot life and demolding time—see TDS for precise values. Important: too little catalyst leads to incomplete crosslinking; too much catalyst dramatically reduces the pot life and can impair the final properties. Stir both components thoroughly before mixing.

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.
