Model Making Materials

Ecoflex is a platinum-catalysed extremely soft silicone rubber.

Ecoflex is mixed 1A:1B by weight or volume and cures at room temperature with negligible shrinkage without a 'tacky' surface.

Low viscosity ensures easy mixing and virtually bubble-free pours.

Ecoflex silicone rubbers are suitable for a variety of applications including making prosthetic appliances, cushioning for orthotics and special effects applications (especially in animatronics where repetitive motion is required).

Cured rubber is very soft, very strong and very stretchy, capable of stretching many times its original size without tearing and rebounding to its original form without distortion. Because Ecoflex is water white translucent, it readily accepts pigments for creating a variety of colour effects.

NOTE: As with any addition-cure or platinum silicone rubber, exposure to sulphur and latex can lead to cure inhibition. Do not use sulphur-based modelling clay or wear latex gloves while processing Ecoflex.
