SILISIL RTV ZCX 15-3 CATALYST
Catalyst (Component B) for the condensation-curing RTV-2 system SILISIL ZCX 15-3, mixing ratio 10:1.
SILISIL ZCX 15-3 CATALYST is the crosslinking component of the condensation-curing two-component silicone ZCX 15-3, which vulcanizes at room temperature. The system offers a low Shore A hardness of approximately 14, high tear strength, and low dimensional change, and is not inhibited by plaster, clay, or cement. The catalyst is weighed into the base exactly in a 10:1 ratio (base to catalyst); homogenize both components before use and process on clean, dry surfaces at room temperature.

SILISIL ZCX 15-3 CATALYST — ZCX
SILISIL ZCX 15-3 CATALYST is part of the 2K system SILISIL ZCX — a condensation-curing silicone series for applications where classic tin crosslinking offers advantages over platinum systems in terms of cost, tolerance to contamination, and processing temperature..
Product Advantages
- 2K addition system with precisely matched mixing ratio
- Low shrinkage and dimensionally stable even after prolonged storage
- High tear and tear propagation resistance
- Excellent detail reproduction even at a microscopic level
- Long mold life with proper processing
- Compatible with common casting and molding materials
Typical Applications
- General mold making: Classic impression for plaster, wax, and resin casting
- Decorative Elements: Stamping dies, decorative parts, figures
- Artist supplies: Sculpture and plastic reproduction
- Construction and Architecture: Wall element and ornament molds
Processing and Mixing
- For the exact mixing ratio, pot life, and demolding time, please refer to the technical data sheet (TDS) on this product page
- Before processing, stir both components individually and then mix thoroughly in the specified ratio
- Degassing under vacuum (30–50 mbar) eliminates air inclusions and improves surface quality
- Processing ideally at 23 °C and 40–60 % relative humidity
- Contamination by sulfur, amines, tin catalysts, or PVC must be avoided in platinum-crosslinked systems — they prevent curing
Storage and Shelf Life
- Store in unopened original container at 5–25 °C, dry and protected from direct sunlight
- Shelf life from the manufacturing date specified in the TDS — typically 12–24 months
- After opening, reseal carefully
Included Documentation
- Technical Data Sheet (TDS) in German, English, and French
- Safety Data Sheet (SDS) according to REACH
- Batch certificate on request
