Silicone release agent is a kind of auxiliary material specially designed for mold release of silicone products. In the production process of silicone products, due to the high viscosity of silicone, it is very easy to leave traces on the mold or difficult to release the mold, which is when it is necessary to use it. It can not only effectively reduce the adhesion between silicone and mold, making silicone products in the demolding more smoothly, but also can form a protective film on the surface of the mold to extend the service life of the mold.
The main features are good demolding effect, easy to use, no corrosion on the mold, does not affect the performance and appearance of silicone products. At the same time, it also has good water resistance, temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and other characteristics, suitable for a variety of silicone products production environment.
Printing use process
1、Make sure the surface of the mold is clean, dry and free of oil. You can use alcohol or clean cloth to wipe the surface of the mold to remove impurities and moisture.
2、Apply an appropriate amount evenly on the mold surface, make sure the application is even and not excessive. You can use tools such as sponges, brushes or spray cans to apply.
3、Allow the applied release agent to dry naturally on the surface of the mold, usually waiting a few minutes to ten minutes, depending on the ambient temperature and humidity.
4、After drying, inject the silicone into the mold, press and vulcanize according to production requirements.
5、After the vulcanization of the silicone product is completed, gently remove the product from the mold. As it does, the product should be able to be easily removed from the mold without leaving traces or residues.
6、Carry out the necessary post-processing on the removed silicone products, such as trimming, sanding, cleaning, and so on.
FAQ
Q1: Does silicone release agent affect the performance of silicone products?
A1: No, it does not. The main function is to reduce the adhesion between the silicone and the mold, and it will not have any effect on the performance of silicone products.
Q2: How long do I need to wait after application before I can start injecting silicone?
A2: After application, you need to wait for natural drying, usually it takes a few minutes to ten minutes, depending on the ambient temperature and humidity. It is recommended to wait for a certain period of time after application to ensure it is completely dry.
Q3: What if the silicone products are still difficult to be demolded?
A3: If silicone products are still difficult to release from the mold, it may be due to uneven or excessive application, impurities or moisture on the surface of the mold. You can try to solve the problem by reapplying, cleaning the mold surface or replacing silicone release agent with a new one.
