ISOMARK FLUID REPLICATING COMPOUNDS
Isomark Fluid Replicating Compound
Overview of Isomark Fluid Replicating Compound
The Isomark Fluid Replicating Compound is a high-resolution, two-part silicone polymer specifically formulated for forensic applications. Its low viscosity and fluid nature minimize the risk of air entrapment, ensuring uniform application over large surfaces. This compound is ideal for faithfully reproducing fine details of fingerprints and other marks on various surfaces, facilitating comparative microscopic examinations.
Key Features of Isomark Fluid Replicating Compound
- High resolution: Precision up to 0.1 μm, allowing for the examination of fine details that are typically unrecorded.
- High contrast properties: Offers optimal contrast, making details easier to observe under magnification or photography.
- Fast curing: Working time of 1 minute and full cure in 7 minutes at 25°C, enabling quick evidence collection.
- Low viscosity: Ensures easy application and reduces the risk of air bubble formation.
- Dimensional stability: Maintains replica accuracy over time.
- Safe for use: Non-flammable, solvent-free, and cleared for all modes of transport, including air freight.
