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.

Usage Instruction
The recommended concentration of each component and the curing conditions depend on the specific type of HTV silicone being used. These parameters are provided in the table below:
| Concentration in mixing | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Process | HTV based | A (Wt.%) | B (Wt.%) | Temperature (˚C)* | Time (min)* |
| Compression molding | PPT | 0.8 | 1.5 | 100-150 | 4 < |
| Fumed | 0.8 | 1.5 | 100-150 | 4 < | |
| Extrusion | PPT | 1.5 | 1 | 200-300 | 5 < |
| Fumed | 1 | 1.5 | 200-300 | 5 < | |
| Note: The measure of temperature and time are depended on product’s thickness. | |||||
