Product Description
Soma Foama™ 25
Soma Foama™ is a soft, two-component platinum silicone flexible foam that is versatile and easy to use. Soma Foama™ 25 is a higher density foam vs. original Soma Foama™ 15 which expands 2-3 times its original volume and develops a uniform 25 lb./cu. ft. cell structure (400 kg/m³). Vibrant colors can be achieved by adding Silc-Pig™ silicone color pigments. Cured foam is high heat resistance (will resist up to 350°F/176°C), water resistant, UV resistant and resists oxidation and ozone degradation.
Ecoflex™ 5
Ecoflex™ rubbers are platinum-catalyzed silicones that are versatile and easy to use. Ecoflex™ rubbers are mixed 1A:1B by weight or volume and cured at room temperature with negligible shrinkage. Low viscosity ensures easy mixing and de-airing. Dispense using our convenient dispensing cartridges. Cured rubber is very soft, very strong and very “stretchy”, stretching many times its original size without tearing and will rebound to its original form without distortion.
