...f the two-component samples, the thermoplastic substrates were pretreated with an Openair plasma for chemical activation of the surface. The platelets are placed into the heated mold and overmolded with LSR (grade: Silopren LSR2740; manufacturer: Momentive Performance Materials Inc. in Columbus, OH, USA).Best adhesion was achieved with PBT (grade: Ultradur (Pro) B 4520; manufacturer: BASF SE in Ludwigshafen, Germany) and PEEK (grade: Victrex 151 G; manufacturer: Victrex plc in Thornton-Cleveleys...

...response of the mold has a decisive impact on the part properties – as well as the filling of the mold and the part curing behavior (Fig. 2). The comprehensive rheological and thermal analysis shows that the material chosen by Momentive (type: Silopren LSR 2670) meets the production requirements of this special injection molding process. At Fakuma, the results of the virtual production were demonstrated at the Sigma booth. The visitors could experience a live demonstration of the production proc...

..., since here the component is shaped without tools and thus the contour is not fixed and difficult to maintain.UV-Curing LSR for Additive Manufacturing This problem is handled by using a high-viscosity UV-curing liquid silicone rubber (LSR, type: Silopren UV LSR 2060, manufacturer: Momentive Performance Materials Inc., Waterford, NY/USA). The gel-like nature of this material is excellently suited for continuous processing using FDM. During the deposition process, a UV radiation source donates t...

...oduct, it is an impressive part. The pot holder with a shot weight of 83 g demonstrates the filling of a honeycomb structure with up to 1 mm wall thickness at a maximum flow-path length of 135 mm (Fig. 1). This complex molding is manufactured from a Silopren LSR 2650, an LSR material that, according to Oliver Franssen, Senior Global Marketing Leader of Momentive, is heat stable up to 3200 °C (however only for 45 s in this extreme case). These properties even qualify it for use in the heat shield...

...thacrylate (PMMA) (type: Plexiglas Resist zk5HC, manufacturer: Evonik Industries AG, Marl, Germany), polycarbonate (PC, type: Makrolon 2405, manufacturer: Covestro AG, Leverkusen, Germany), and liquid silicone rubber (LSR, type: Silopren LSR 7060, manufacturer: Momentive Performance Materials GmbH, Leverkusen). These plastic types also meet the necessary requirements for use in the construction sector and are therefore available as materials of choice. Four textile types have been tested – Decol...
