- Features
Excellent Mold Release, Good Flexibility, High Hardness, Improves Physical Properties, Platinum Catalyzed, Translucent. Due to its flexibility and ease in releasing, it performs well with expandable foam systems, maintaining its shape and detail for multiple castings. P-592 may have its cure inhibited at the interface between the mold and the master. Organo-tin compounds, sulfur and some nitrogen containing compounds can cause the inhibition.
