The sequence of color loading is important – white, yellow, tan & red, followed by further pigments. Each loading is, thoroughly mixed before other is added.
The extrinsic pigments can also be used to create special color effects in conjunction with silicone based adhesive. The components are mixed to vulcanize in the ratio of Comp A : Comp B = 10:1. The process of vulcanization can be achieved by any of the following method under clamped pressure:
At Room Temp. : 8 to 12 HRSÂ
At 1000c to 150 0c -1 to 11/2 HRS
The Prosthesis can be’ trimmed & finished by means of scissor and electric grinding discs. The retention is achieved by silicone adhesive or any other means suitable for patient. Silicone Prosthesis adopts well to the skin surface and the high tear strength of PROSKIN allows for fine blending of margins with the skin.
