Frequently asked questions about CATA 2H Trans
Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.
Bluesil Cata 2H Trans: Very fast tin catalyst for translucent RTV series — 2 h demolding time for maximum production speed. Main applications: Maximum production speed, translucent mold tools, express prototyping.
Standard dosage is 5 parts catalyst per 100 parts RTV base (5% w/w). The exact dosage affects the pot life and demolding time — see the TDS for the exact values. Important: too little catalyst leads to incomplete crosslinking, too much catalyst dramatically shortens 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 standard between +5 and +30 °C, exact values see TDS. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. Observe the expiration date on the packaging — Elkem guarantees the sales specifications only up to the stated date.
