    Technical Data Sheet

    LIM* 6061
    Description
    LIM6061 is the next generation in 60-durometer liquid silicone rubber. It is a two-component product formulated for use in liquid injection molding to
    produce high performance parts. It is clear, but easily pigmentable with Momentive masterbatch colors. The combination of excellent tear strength and
    very high tensile strength makes this product suitable for a wide variety of applications. Mechanical parts such as connector inserts, seals, flexible
    mounds, and valve parts can be made readily from LIM6061 liquid silicone rubber.

    Key Features and Benefits

    High clarity for excellent visibility


    Excellent tear strength
    Convenient 1:1 mix ratio for use with automatic equipment
    Rapid cure time: 10 to 40 seconds depending upon part size, configuration and molding temperature
    Wide range of molding temperatures: 1500C (3020F) to 2320C (4500F)
    Excellent release from metal molds
    High Bayshore resilience

    coating metal rolls

    Processing Recommendations
    Ready-to-use mixtures (of the components A and B) are fed directly to the injection-molding machine from the original containers by means of a metering
    and mixing unit. The mixture, consisting of the two components in the ratio 1:1, is injected into the heated mold. At mold temperatures of 170 - 230C, the
    addition-cross linking silicone rubber typically vulcanizes, without any dissociation products, within a few seconds. High curing speed and easy
    demolding can help enable fully automated production of a large number of articles in short cycle times.

    Regulatory Compliance

    A representative sample of an analogous product to LIM 6061 met the requirements of USP Class VI.
    Listed as UL 94 HB (File No. E205753)
    The ingredients are listed in the BfR recommendation XV Silicones (1)
    Compositionally compliant with 21 CFR 177.2600 Rubber articles intended for repeated use(2)

    (1) Producer of the final article needs to test and confirm that the final product meets the extraction limits of BfR XV or corresponding EU legislation.
    (2) It is the responsibility of the user to determine that the final product complies with the extractive limitations and other requirements of 21 CFR
    177.2600, under their specific manufacturing procedures.
