CHT Group QM 118 QSI Quantum Silicones 18 Durometer Condensation Cured Moldmaking Material
Categories: Polymer; Thermoset; Silicone

Material Notes: QM 107 is a two component, room temperature condensation cure silicone material. The cured rubber is very soft, has excellent mechanical properties and good shelf-life stability. This material is an excellent choice for the molding of intricate patterns, skin molding or for applications which demand a tough rubber. The hardness of QM 118 is the midpoint of the QM100 series and therefore offers excellent physical properties. A variety of catalysts are offered with this material.  

Key Features:

  • Low Viscosity
  • Excellent physical properties
  • Fast demold time
Main Applications:
  • Molds for small statues, large statues and monument restoration
  • Molds for polyester, polyurethane and epoxy resin castings
  • Molds for prototypes

Formerly Amber Chemical Co (ACC Silicones), aquired by CHT in 2017
