FAQ About Silicone Premature Curing and Winstar Inhibitor

Q1: Will excess Winstar inhibitor stop silicone from fully curing?

A: Moderate over-dosage only prolongs heat curing time; standard oven/mold temperatures above 120°C can fully decompose the inhibitor and complete vulcanization. Test dosage in advance to balance pot life and curing efficiency.

Q2: Can Winstar inhibitor replace traditional ethynylcyclohexanol inhibitor?

A: Yes.Winstar inhibitor serves as a high-performance substitute for ECH and TMDO retarders with weaker odor, lower yellowing and better long-term storage stability of mixed silicone compounds.

Q3: Is Winstar inhibitor compatible with all platinum addition silicone?

A: Winstar inhibitor works with all vinyl-terminated addition silicone systems, including transparent LSR, filled silicone rubber, solvent-based silicone coatings and solvent-free potting compounds.
