Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR)

LSR (Liquid Silicone Rubber) offers several advantages depending on its application or industrial use. Firstly, it is highly biocompatible, making it suitable for parts that come into contact with humans, such as organ components or prostheses. Secondly, it is extremely durable, ensuring long-term stability and chemical resistance. Additionally, LSR maintains its high-performance mechanical properties across a wide temperature range, from -60 °C to +250 °C. This makes it compatible with various operating conditions. Thirdly, LSR possesses excellent electrical properties, making it ideal for insulation and precise conductivity protection. Lastly, LSR is transparent and can be pigmented to match different color requirements, including human skin tones.

LSRs are the preferred material for industries like automotive and medical devices, where the production of small and intricate elastomeric parts at high speed and optimal productivity is crucial. In such cases, Liquid Injection Molding of LSRs becomes one of the most efficient processes for fabricators.
