Transparent Condensation Cure RTV-2 Silicone Potting Compound with 10:1 Mix

HN-8808A/B is a two-component condensation-cure (tin system) RTV-2 liquid silicone rubber supplied in a 10:1 ratio by weight. Component A is the base silicone and Component B is the curing agent; both are transparent liquids. After mixing, the compound cures at room temperature into a transparent, flexible elastomer that allows visual inspection of potted components.

The cured material offers dielectric strength ≥ 14 kV/mm, dielectric constant ≤ 3.0, elongation at break ≤ 100%, continuous operation from -50 °C to 200 °C, good adhesion to most substrates (especially aluminium), small chemical shrinkage and no exotherm during cure. It is waterproof and moisture-proof, protecting electronic assemblies from humidity.

Typical use: LED strip lights and flexible light strips, LED power supplies, waterproof power supplies, PCB potting and coating, lamps and luminaires, automotive electronic modules and aluminium substrate assemblies where a clear, inspectable encapsulation is required.

• Transparent cured elastomer - potted components, solder joints and LED chips remain visible for inspection, rework screening and quality audit.
• Condensation-cure RTV-2 tin system, 10:1 by weight - simple metering with a small curing agent package; no platinum catalyst, lower raw material cost.
• Room-temperature curing, no oven required - initial set then 8-24 hours full cure at 25 °C; optional gentle post-cure below 60 °C after initial set.
• Low mixed viscosity 2200-2600 mPa·s - flows into fine gaps, dense LED strips, wire channels and thin PCB housings.
• Good adhesion, especially to aluminium substrates - bonds to aluminium profiles, heatsinks and metal housings without primer in most cases.
• Non-corrosive and no exotherm - safe for copper traces, LED phosphor, gold wire bonding and temperature-sensitive components.
• Small chemical shrinkage - low internal stress on thin PCBs and flexible circuits, reducing warpage and LED displacement.
• Dielectric strength ≥ 14 kV/mm, dielectric constant ≤ 3.0 - electrical insulation for LED drivers, power supplies and low voltage electronics.
• Wide temperature resistance -50 °C to 200 °C - stable in outdoor signage, lamp housings and automotive interiors.
• Waterproof and moisture-proof - protects light strips, PCBs and modules in humid, outdoor and wash-down environments.
• Elongation at break up to 100% - flexible encapsulation absorbs bending, vibration and thermal cycling of flexible light strips.
• Two-component packaging for production - 20 kg + 2 kg and 10 kg + 1 kg kits fit manual and semi-automatic dispensing.
• Low density 0.94 ± 0.02 g/cm³ - lighter potted assemblies and lower material consumption per litre.

Values measured under standard conditions (25 °C, 50-60% RH) after the recommended cure schedule; actual performance may vary with application conditions.

• Sensors, connectors, cable junctions and small electronic modules
• General electronic encapsulation requiring transparent, waterproof and insulating protection
• Light sources, lamps, luminaires, stage and architectural lighting fixtures

1. Pre-mix: stir Component A thoroughly to redisperse settled filler; shake or stir Component B (curing agent) well.
2. Weigh: weigh A and B at exactly 10:1 by mass on a precision scale; keep A and B separate and the work area clean and dry.
3. Mix: mix until uniform in colour, scraping walls and bottom; do not prepare too large a batch by hand because fluidity drops as curing starts. Cure is faster in summer and slower in winter.
4. Degas: vacuum degassing is recommended to remove entrapped air. Do not completely seal the device or heat above 100 °C before the curing mass has fully released.
5. Pot: pour the degassed compound into the clean, dry device and ensure complete coverage.
6. Cure: room-temperature cure; initial set allows the next process, complete cure takes 8-24 hours. After initial cure, gentle heating not exceeding 60 °C may be used to accelerate curing.

Critical process notes: the 10:1 mixed compound must NOT be heated immediately after mixing, only after initial cure and never above 60 °C. Small molecules are released during condensation cure, so keep the area ventilated and do not seal prematurely; if complete sealing is required, wait 3 days in summer or 7 days in winter. Reseal Components A and B immediately after opening to avoid moisture contamination.

• Component A: 20 kg or 10 kg iron / plastic drum; Component B: 2 kg or 1 kg plastic bottle.
• Kit options: 22 kg per set (20 kg + 2 kg) or 11 kg per set (10 kg + 1 kg).
• Store sealed at below 25 °C in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, moisture, heat and extreme temperatures.
• Shelf life: 6 months from date of manufacture when unopened and properly sealed; best used within 3 months.
• After opening, reseal immediately and use as soon as possible; do not return unused mixed material to the original containers.
