New Material Family Combines Elastomeric Flexibility With Textile Reinforcement;
Wasteless, Automated Processing in Fast Addition Curing LSR Injection Molding Process
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Momentive Performance Materials and the Woco-Group of Bad Soden, Salmunster, Germany today introduced a new generation of jointly developed fiber-reinforced liquid silicone rubber (LSR) materials. The new family of fiber reinforced LSRs process like standard liquid silicone rubbers in terms of cure speed and flowability, but the modulus of the materials has been significantly increased through the use of textile fibers, chemically bonded to the silicone matrix.
