What sets SILISIL RTV CT-BodyThixo 22 apart

Skin-friendly for lifecasting
Tested for direct skin contact — suitable for body casts of the face, hands, and torso.
Thixotropic — stays in place on vertical surfaces
Stays in place on vertical surfaces without running — on-site impressions can be taken on walls, ceilings, and sculptures.
Pot life: 45 minutes — easy to work with
Very short processing time — suitable for high-throughput production with short molding cycles.
Elongation at break: 360% at Shore A 22
Good elongation at break — suitable for moderate undercuts while maintaining high mold rigidity.
Mixing ratio 1:1 by weight
Simple 1:1 ratio — can be mixed by hand without a precision scale, ideal for workshops and hobbyists.
High tensile strength: 14 N/mm²
Very high tensile strength for lifecasting applications — ensures easy removal of body parts from the mold.

processing

1
Prepare the original
Clean, dry, and dust-free surface at 23 °C — cooler environments significantly extend pot life and curing time.
2
Mixing components
Stir the base and catalyst well before use. Weigh out a 1:1 ratio by weight. Work it in thoroughly, including the sides and bottom of the container.
3
Vacuum venting
To ensure a pore-free finish, briefly degas under vacuum.
4
Process
Pour in a thin stream from a height of about 30 cm — this minimizes air bubbles. For modeling clay, press it directly onto the model.
5
Vulcanization and demolding
At 23 °C, the part can be removed from the mold after about 25 minutes; it will be fully cured after 12 hours.
