Where Our Additives Work

Medical and food-contact applications account for nearly two-thirds of platinum-cured silicone demand. Each scenario below pairs the pain points with a recommended additive combination.

Application 01

Medical Silicone

The pain: odor, residual by-products and post-cure demands that medical OEMs and their auditors will not accept.

Our answer: platinum addition cure leaves no volatile by-products — parts exit the mold odor-free without exhaustive post-cure baking.

Recommended systemG50A / G25B for extruded tubing · A3 / H350B for molded parts
Typical partsCatheter tubing, seals, gaskets, valves, respirator components
Key requirementsOdor-free, high purity surface, clean tear trim
Platinum-cured silicone medical tubing and catheters
Application 02

Food Contact & Kitchenware

The pain: parts that pass at the factory but whiten after the water-boil or dishwasher test — the number one rejection cause in food-contact silicone.

Our answer: platinum curing for odor-free, peroxide-free parts, combined with FD-A6 anti-blooming agent and FD-68 internal release agent — the combination specifically formulated to survive water-boil testing.

Recommended systemA3 / H350B + FD-A6 + FD-68
Typical partsBakeware, spatulas, steamervalves, sealing gaskets
Key requirementsWater-boil resistance, no blooming, no odor
Food-grade silicone bakeware and sealing gaskets
Application 03

Baby Care Products

The pain: the strictest odor, safety and surface requirements of any silicone market — plus brand owners demanding antibacterial claims that can be verified.

Our answer: odor-free platinum curing with clean tear trimming, and optional FD-05 antibacterial agent with ISO 22196-tested results (99.9% against E. coli and S. aureus in finished parts).

Recommended systemA3 / H350B + FD-68, optionally + FD-05
Typical partsNipples, teethers, tableware, placemats
Key requirementsOdor-free, easy demolding, verified hygiene claims
Silicone baby bottle nipples and teethers
Application 04

Industrial Seals & Gaskets

The pain: flash and demolding problems eating cycle time; compression-set and ageing failures in the field.

Our answer: A3 / H350B for fast, clean molding with easy tear trim; FD-68 for demolding and improved ageing resistance; W-8630 spray for difficult tools — without affecting any downstream bonding or coating.

Recommended systemA3 / H350B + FD-68, W-8630 for the tool
Typical partsO-rings, gaskets, dampers, diaphragms
Key requirementsCycle time, clean flash removal, ageing resistance
Silicone O-rings and industrial gaskets
Application 05

Electronics & Cable

The pain: peroxide residues corroding contacts; yellowing white keypads after UV exposure; bubbles in insulation extrusion.

Our answer: G50A / G25B for high-clarity, bubble-free extrusion of insulation profiles and sleeving; A3 / H350B for keypads and connectors — no corrosive by-products, high anti-yellowing.

Recommended systemG50A / G25B for extrusion · A3 / H350B for molded parts
Typical partsWire insulation, sleeving, keypads, connector seals
Key requirementsNo corrosive residues, clarity, anti-yellowing
Silicone rubber keypads and electronic components
