These silicone paste colorants are single-pigment or custom-made dispersions using a silicone carrier developed for liquid silicone rubber (LSR) injection molding applications.
They can be used in one-component and two-component Room Temperature Vulcanization (RTV) systems and two-part Liquid Injection Molding (LIM) systems.
