SS-26 is a 1-part, room-temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone rubber blended with silver powder to make a material which is highly conductive and elastic when cured (crosslinked). Curing requires ~1 hour/mm of thickness in typical ambient conditions (70F/26C, ~50%RH) to be handled, and ~24 hours for a full cure.
