Rhodium Catalyst

Rhodium-catalyzed addition-cure coatings are unique to Dow Corning, and the cure chemistry is exceptionally robust.

Rhodium is inert against all commonly used adhesives, and it is relatively difficult to poison the catalyst.

Rhodium-catalyzed coatings are less sensitive to substrate inhibition than platinum-catalyzed coatings. However, they do cure more slowly and at a higher temperature, making them unsuitable for temperature-sensitive substrates. These coatings are also unsuitable for food-contact applications.

Rhodium-catalyzed coatings have been successfully applied to solventless delivery systems.
