Soft Silicones for Palliative Orthotics SILICONE BLAND-ROSE REF. F-01930-01 Tin of 500 g The BLAND-ROSE poly-condensation silicone continues to be one of the softest silicones on the market. Especially designed for its use in podiatry it is recommended in the making of palliative orthosis. Easy to use, it is soft, elastic and smooth to touch. It hydrates the skin, helping to regenerate it and soften the harder parts. Very comfortable, it eases pain immediately. It is recommended to moisten the fingers with water if it sticks to them when manipulating. It hardens with liquid catalyser or in paste. It can be mixed with other poly-condensation silicones from Fresco in order to achieve different levels of hardness. Its high level of elasticity and low stiffness makes it appropriate for work in geriatrics and in diabetic feet. The finished orthosis is both washable and reusable. Technical characteristics: Colour: Pink (Strawberry) Density (g/cm3): 1.06 Modulus 100% (MPa): 0.19 Breaking resistance Mpa: 0.8
Stretching: 364 % Split resistance (KN/m): 4.4 Aspect: Not fluid paste Hardness Shore A: 2-4
Note: As it is manufactured by hand it may feel slightly sticky. It is advised to wet fingers with water prior to production to provide perfect results. Once the orthotic has been made it will take 24 hours to reach it final level of hardness.

200 ml.Silicone Oil which can be used to obtain a brighter, more consistent and softer to the touch finishing work to any orthosis made with our silicones. It can also be mixed with other paste and liquid silicones to make the mass more fluent. If you need to make an orthosis with any kind of support (fabric or any other porous material) if the oil is used in the mass this will help the silicone penetrate and stuck much better on the support. It is recommended making a trial before. Silicones not adhere easily to plastic or other nonporous materials.
