Vacuum Casting Processing Conditions
• Use in a vacuum casting machine.
• Heat the mould at 70°C (preferably polyaddition silicon mould).
• Heat both parts at 20°C in case of storage at a lower temperature.
• Weigh part A in the upper cup (do not forget to allow for residual cup waste).
• Weigh part B in the lower cup (mixing cup).
• After degasing for 10 minutes under vacuum pour part A in part B and mix for 1 minute 30 to 2 minutes.
• Cast in the silicone mould, previously heated at 70°C.
• Put in an oven at 70°C minimum.
• Demould after 45 minutes at 70°C.
• Carry out the following thermal treatment : 3 hr at 70°C + 2 hr at 80°C and 2hr at 100°C.
• Always while curing, place the part on stand.
