Platinum Catalyst Gel Curing System

PCSWIC is a two-component platinum-based gel curing system specifically formulated for the vulcanization of high-temperature silicone rubber (HTV).

This system consists of two parts — YA/220/WIC and YB/220/WIC — which must be used simultaneously under low-temperature conditions and a short curing cycle to achieve optimal performance.

Wire Iran Co. introduces a pioneering advancement in silicone technology: The first the platinum curing system, fully developed and manufactured in Iran.

Key Highlights

Platinum-Catalyzed Gel System

Platinum-cured silicone gel designed for medical, pharmaceutical, and food-grade applications.
