Platinum Vulcanizing Agent A3 / H350B

Two-part addition-cure system for compression-molded silicone parts — keypads, seals, kitchenware, mother-and-baby products — with an exceptionally long pot life.

Key Features

  • 10+ days pot life at room temperature after A/B incorporation — no refrigeration needed
  • Completely odor-free parts, no post-cure baking
  • Easy demolding and clean tear trimming — less flash and rework
  • High clarity, high anti-yellowing, no blooming on the surface
  • Significantly faster cure than peroxide systems, with lower energy consumption
  • Environmentally sound — no peroxide decomposition residues

Recommended Dosage

For most molding compounds — confirm against the TDS for your application.

CompoundPart A (A3)Part B (H350B)Cure Conditions
Standard molding compounds0.3–0.5%0.8–1%130–175 °C · 10–500 s (adjust to part thickness)
Compounds below 40 Shore A0.5%1%Recommended for softer, low-hardness gum
Dark-colored compounds may require a higher Part A dosage — contact us for guidance before running black or deep-color parts. Standard packs are Part A 1 kg + Part B 5 kg; one set treats several hundred kilograms of compound — tell us your formulation and target volume and we will confirm the exact quantities for your trial.

Processing

  1. Mix the base compound

    Compound raw gum until uniform and smooth.

  2. Add Part A and Part B together

    Unlike the extrusion grade, A and B may be added at the same time. Mix until homogeneous.

  3. Sheet out three times

    Pass the compound through the mill three times to guarantee uniform dispersion.

  4. Mold and cure

    Compression molding at 130–175 °C, 10–500 s depending on part thickness.

⚠ Catalyst poisoning — read before use Platinum catalysts are deactivated by sulfur, amines, phosphorus and tin compounds. Compound mixed with A/B must not be stored together with peroxides or raw rubber. Do not add the agent while mixer temperature exceeds 45 °C. See the Technical Guide.

Handling & Storage

  • Store sealed below 28 °C in a cool, dark place
  • Keep away from peroxides, raw rubber, and sulfur-, ammine- or tin-containing materials
  • Compound containing A/B is workable for 10+ days — production can be scheduled without refrigerated storage
  • For best surface quality, pair with FD-68 internal release agent
