Physical Properties of Silicone Foam (Rtv 385/Rtv 386)

摘要

An evaluation of the physical properties of a silicone foam (RTV 385/RTV 386) was conducted to determine the effects of varying the amounts of the solid and foam components in specimen composition. The physical properties in this instance are significant in terms of the application of the foam as a therapeutic medium for therapists. It was determined that the properties could be varied by changing the amount of the components in the foam composition. Additionally, with the results one can prepare a foam specimen with predetermined compressive strength characteristics. (Author)
