ELASTOSIL® R 756/40 OH
- Chemical Family
- Silicones
ELASTOSIL® R 756/40 OH is a high consistency silicone rubber that undergoes peroxide curing. The resulting vulcanizates exhibit outstanding resistance to hot air, especially when a heat stabilizer is added. These vulcanizates also demonstrate favorable properties such as good tear resistance, low compression set, and high elasticity.
