摘要
The curing kinetics and cure dependence of properties of a silicone membrane were evaluated. The curing process has been shown to be quite temperature sensitive, suggesting that a longer processing time is required to cure the device at a more moderate temperature. However, curing temperature results at room in a substantially looser polymer network in the membrane. In order to investigate the cure dependence of membrane properties, stable partially cured membranes were prepared. The elasticity of partially cured membranes was observed to drop dramatically. However, the membrane permeability to testosterone for even the most poorly cured membranes was noted to be within the normal variation in permeability of fully cured membranes. © 1990.
