BX-31 30 Shore A Elastomer For Concrete Casting
BX-31 is a two-part polyurethane molding system. BX-31 is mixed 100iso:97curative by weight (or 1 Pt-A Iso to 1 Pt-B Curative by volume) and cures at room temperature. BX-31 cures to a low hardness, Shore A 31 light yellow rubber. Ultimate properties are obtained after 3-4 days of room temperature cure. Cure can be accelerated with heat (130-150°F for 12-16 hours) but a slightly harder polymer (34 +/- 2 Shore A) and slight shrinkage will be obtained.
