Single-Pack Platinum Crosslinking Powder for HCR Silicone Extrusion
Introduce
WSD-PTC-310 is an addition-type platinum crosslinking powder tailor-made for high consistency silicone extrusion operations. Unlike conventional two-pack platinum vulcanizer systems that demand separate weighing and staged feeding, this single-pack formulation removes complicated batching steps entirely. Simply incorporate 0.8–1.0% of this powder into your HCR silicone gum during compounding. Once fed to the extruder, it initiates controlled addition crosslinking inside the heating tunnel oven. It delivers clean, scent-free extruded silicone profiles with great transparency and resistance to thermal yellowing. It is a stable curing solution for long-run extrusion of tubing, gaskets and food-contact silicone goods.
Core Advantages
✅ Single-pack ready formulation, no separate A & B componentsNo dual-component matching. Your mixing team only handles one material, cutting training time and eliminating ratio mistakes.
✅ Consistent cure performance for long tunnel extrusion runsCuring rate stays steady over hours of non-stop extrusion, minimizing surface defects, blisters and blooming on extruded profiles.
✅ Economical low addition level: 0.8–1.0%Fine powder distributes evenly inside silicone matrix, without downgrading tensile, tear strength or compression set of finished silicone.
✅ Clean addition cure, zero peroxide odour, strong yellowing resistanceNo residual peroxide odour after post-bake. Transparent silicone extrudates maintain clear appearance over ageing.
✅ Regulatory friendly for food-safe silicone articlesBase formula meets RoHS; custom grades can be adjusted to satisfy FDA and LFGB requirements for drinking & food contact silicone.
✅ Stable shelf stability for 12 months under sealed cool storageBuilt-in inhibitor prevents premature crosslinking during normal mixing and storage.
Comparison Table
| Comparison Item | WSD-PTC-310 Single-Pack Pt Crosslinking Powder | Traditional Two-Pack (A+B) Platinum Vulcanizer |
|---|---|---|
| Compounding Operation | One single powder, add once at 0.8-1.0% and mix | Separate weighing of A and B, two-stage feeding, strict ratio control |
| Production Downtime & Scrap | Less scrap caused by wrong proportion, fewer line stops | High risk of under-cure or scorch if weighing or sequence goes wrong |
| Inventory Management | Just one SKU to stock, track and reorder | Dual SKUs must be stocked together; expiry of one part wastes the matched set |
| Mixing Cycle | Single feed, shorter kneading cycle, higher mixer throughput | Two feeds required, longer compounding time, lower batch output |
| Continuous Line Stability | Cure speed holds consistent through long extrusion shifts | Vulcanization speed drifts easily with tiny A/B weighing deviation |
| Risk of Pre-Cure | Stabilized inhibitor package, safe under standard mixing temperature | Risk of scorch inside kneader if feeding sequence or proportion is off |
| Final Part Consistency | Uniform clarity, low-odour and anti-yellowing batch to batch | Product quality heavily relies on operator’s weighing precision |
Application Scope
- Continuous extruded silicone tubing, flexible hoses and solid cords
- Silicone gaskets, sealing profiles for construction and appliances
- Clear, high-transparency extruded silicone parts
- Food-contact, kitchen and infant silicone extrusion products
- Sanitary silicone profiles requiring odour-free cure

Processing Guidance
- Charge WSD-PTC-310 powder at 0.8–1.0% loading while kneading HCR silicone rubber.
- Continue mixing until full and uniform dispersion of powder in silicone compound.
- Feed compound into extruder, cure continuously via heated tunnel oven.
- Keep away from sulfur, amine and tin-containing contaminants which poison platinum catalyst.
- Keep pouch tightly sealed, store in cool dry area, avoid direct sunlight.

FAQ
Q1: Is this crosslinking powder built for extrusion or compression molding? A: WSD-PTC-310 is optimized specially for HCR silicone continuous tunnel extrusion line. Calendering trials can be arranged upon request.
Q2: What is the biggest production benefit vs two-part platinum vulcanizer? A: It removes A/B batching work. Less human error, fewer defective runs, and stable curing for non-stop extrusion.
Q3: Can cured silicone pass food contact compliance tests? A: Base formulation complies with RoHS. We can adjust formula and supply supporting documentation for FDA / LFGB compliance.
Q4: Can I get trial samples? A: Yes, trial samples are available for you to verify extrusion performance. Reach out to us for sample arrangement.
