NuSil MED-6340 Gel - Restricted Medical Use
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoset; Silicone
Material Notes:	Description: A silicone gel is an unreinforced, loosely crosslinked network of polymers. Due to the lack of reinforcing filler, gels tend to be low in viscosity in the uncured state, allowing flexibility for various processing techniques. Not only can the crosslink density of the silicone polymers be designed to yield a very firm or soft gel, but the work time and cure profile can also be modified. Accordingly, gels can be used in a variety of applications, including sheeting and encapsulating sensors or electronic devices. Additionally, NuSil’s restricted tacky gels can be used as temporary adhesives. Important Properties: Silicone gels have a long history of biocompatibility. The following list highlights the properties that make silicone gel systems valuable in the healthcare field: Solvent-free Modifiable tack and penetration Varying viscosities Adjustable cure profiles Non-allergenic Superior breathability Comments: Low Penetration, Low Tack Gel Cure System: Platinum Information provided by NuSil
