NuSil Technology's restricted materials may be considered for use in short-term implant applications, 29 days or less, or for external applications.
High consistency rubber, or HCR, consists of high molecular weight polymer combined with silica to produce a material that can be molded, extruded, or calendared into a useful end product. An HCR has the consistency of clay and is primarily formulated in a one or two part system (peroxide and platinum catalysts respectively).
Most platinum cure high consistency rubbers are two component systems with an easy-to-work-with 1:1 mix ratio.
