Liquid Silicone Rubber (LSR) is a silicone based product that is supplied as a liquid that is cured with heat to form a permanent shape.
Your product or part may call for a design that features both thick and thin walls, complex shapes or intricate details.
Once a thermoset material is cured with heat it forms a permanent shape that cannot be reheated and reformed.

They are ideal for applications that experience repeated impact forces but need to retain their shape without permanent deformation or deterioration of function.
Thermoplastics are viscoelastic materials.
Injection molding can repeatedly produce net shapes in a single-step process that meet finished level specifications.

According to AxioMed COO Jim Kuras,
“The challenge was to assure the polymer portion of the device would maintain
its load-bearing properties without undergoing an excessive permanent change in
shape, as well as to optimize and characterize the polymer-to-titanium bond.”

Sink marks and warpage are caused by material
shrinkage in thick or asymmetric areas during
cooling.
The low
pressure method leads to uniform round shaped
cells.
Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

Ideally, ribs should
be a little thinner so as to not create thick spots
–75% of wall thickness for a low-shrink material
and 50% for a high-shrink material.
Aim for 75% of wall thickness
for a low-shrink material, and 50% of wall
thickness for a high-shrink material, with a draft
angle from ¼° to 1°.
