SILISIL ·

SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP is a room temperature vulcanizing 2-component addition silicone (platinum crosslinking, RTV-2) of the MF-Mold & Form series — translucent soft silicone Shore A 13 for visible casting.

The mixture is prepared in a 1:1 ratio by weight (tolerance ±5%). Pot life at 23°C is approximately 45 minutes, demolding is possible after approximately 8 hours, and complete curing takes 24 hours. Temperature resistant from -40°C to +200°C.

Key property

Translucent soft silicone with a long pot life (45 min) — air inclusions remain visible, the embedded original is recognizable upon demolding, and the long pot life allows for complex casting processes.

What distinguishes SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP

Translucent for visible pouring
Air inclusions, mold filling, and the embedded original are visible during processing and demolding.
Low viscosity 4'500 mPa·s
Low mixed viscosity — flows into finest structures without air entrapment, vacuum degassing optional.
Elongation at break 500%
High elasticity — reliable demolding of complex geometries without damaging the mold or the original.
Tensile strength 12 N/mm
Solid tear resistance — sufficient for medium series with standard materials.
Long cooking time 45 minutes
Very short processing time — suitable for high-throughput production with short mold cycles.
Mixing ratio 1:1 by weight
Simple 1:1 ratio — hand-mixable without a precision scale, ideal for workshops and hobbyists.

What is SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP used for?

Jewelry and designer studio forms
Translucent mold for precious metal and resin castings — the long pot life (45 min) allows time for multi-part construction.
Complex undercuts with visual inspection
During demolding, the original is visible through the translucent form — precise demolding cut, no risk of damage.
Multi-component replicas
Soft-Touch + Harder Support Layer — MF-Soft 13 TP is the soft layer for hybrid molds with other MF products.
Anatomical-medical training models
Training models for minimally invasive procedures with an ultra-soft consistency — 500% elongation protects the finest structures.
Restoration and museum replicas
Gentle molding of historical originals — the low hardness protects sensitive surfaces.
Designer prototypes and architectural models
Long pot life allows for complex, multi-stage casting — ideal for large-format design studies and architectural models.

Processing

1
Prepare the original
The surface to be reproduced must be clean, dry, and free of dust. The ideal processing temperature is 23 °C — cooler environments significantly extend pot life and curing time.
2
Homogenize and mix components
Stir base and catalyst thoroughly before use. Weigh out 1:1 by weight (tolerance ±5%). When mixing, thoroughly incorporate the walls and bottom of the container.
3
Vacuum degassing
For pore-free molds, briefly degas the mixture under vacuum — entrapped air bubbles are removed, ensuring a smooth mold surface.
4
Pour slowly into the mold
Pour from a height of approx. 30 cm in a thin stream into the deepest point — the silicone displaces air independently and reaches all undercuts.
5
Vulcanize and demold
At 23 °C, demolding is possible after approximately 8 hours, with complete curing after 24 hours. A 24-hour "maturation phase" is required before the first casting to ensure maximum strength.

Important Notes

Avoid crosslinking inhibitors
Additive systems like MF-Soft 13 TP are sensitive to sulfur, amine, tin, and phosphorus compounds—especially latex gloves, modeling clay, adhesive tapes, and some paints. If in doubt, make a small test cast before use.
Storage and Shelf Life
Shelf life of at least 12 months in unopened original container when stored in a dry, cool place (10–25 °C). Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before opening.
Available containers
1 kg + 1 kg, 5 kg + 5 kg, 25 kg + 25 kg. Other container sizes available on request.
Compatibility
Compatible with polyurethane, epoxy, and polyester casting resins. For aggressive resins, apply a release agent to protect the mold.

Frequently asked questions about SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP

Practical application and design questions — answered by SILITECH.

SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP is a two-component (Shore A 13, translucent) additive silicone for jewelry and designer studio molds and related applications. Translucent soft silicone Shore A 13 for visible casting

At 23 °C, the pot life is approximately 45 minutes and the demolding time approximately 8 hours. Complete curing is achieved after 24 hours. Lower temperatures extend, higher temperatures shorten these times.

As an addition system, SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP is sensitive to crosslinking inhibitors: sulfur, amine, tin, and phosphorus compounds can locally halt vulcanization. Avoid latex gloves, sulfur-containing modeling clays, some adhesive tapes, and PVC plasticizers in the immediate vicinity of the mold. If in doubt, make a small test cast.

SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP is mixed in a 1:1 ratio by weight (base to catalyst), with a maximum tolerance of ±5%. Homogenize both components separately before mixing, then thoroughly incorporate them – including the container walls and bottom. Brief vacuum degassing of the mixture is recommended for non-porous molds.

SILISIL RTV MF-Soft 13 TP achieves a Shore A hardness of 13 (ASTM D 2240), a tensile strength of >3.0 N/mm² (ASTM D 412), an elongation at break of approximately 500% and a tensile strength of 12 N/mm (ASTM D 624).
