Cured rubber is very soft, very strong and very “stretchy”, stretching many times its original size without tearing and will rebound to its original form without distortion. Ecoflex rubbers are water white translucent and can be color pigmented with Silc Pig pigments for creating a variety of color effects. You can also add Smooth-On’s Silicone Thinner to further lower the viscosity. THI-VEX silicone thickener can be added by weight to Ecoflex? silicones for brushable applications.
Soft, Softer, Softest . . . Ecoflex rubbers are based on Smooth-On’s Dragon Skin technology and are currently available in four different hardness’: Shore A-5, Shore 00-10, 00-20, 00-30 and 00-50. They 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).
Note: Ecoflex 00-10 cures with a “tacky” surface.
