PDMS mixing

Dear all,

I have a small question regarding mixing up of the PDMS base and the hardner
in 10: 1 ratio. Generally it is specified as mixing up of the two in 10:1
ratio by weight. But can anyone tell me whether their will be a lot of
difference in the PDMS property if one use the ratio of 10:1 by volume ( eg.
10ml : 1ml ). Normally we can correlate the weight ratio to volume ratio,
but in that case can anyone please tell me the density of the base and
the hardner ? The density of the PDMS is about 0.97 kg/m3 .

Thanks in advance.
