A silicone mold is a container with a cavity made of silicone, and in most cases liquid materials (including epoxy, polyester and polyurethane resins, wax, concrete, soap, etc.) can be cast into The cavity is then cured to form an object in the shape of the cavity.

How are silicone molds made?

 

Silicone molds are usually made using a material called room temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone. RTV silicone consists of two parts, it is a simple material, soft and fast curing, after curing, the silicone will remain flexible and elastic, but it depends on the hardness of the rubber you choose to use. Silicone can also tear or crack if stretched too much.

 

Advantages of silicone molds

 

  • Easy to use.

 

  • The tiny details on the model can be reproduced.

 

  • Non-stick mold, with excellent mold release performance.

 

  • Good acid and alkali resistance to most chemicals.

 

  • It has excellent tear resistance and can be used repeatedly.

 

  • It can be used in the temperature range of -50 to +250 °C.

 

Silicone molds have a wide range of uses, from professional quality vacuum casting for prototypes to small batch wax casting for jewelry making, to home applications like baking and candy making, for replicating figurines, jewelry, artifacts, collectibles, candles, and more.

 

Strong cleaners, foaming agents, and dishwasher-safe deodorants are not recommended when cleaning molds. If rinsed with a rinse aid, a white coating may appear on the mold surface and flavor changes may occur in subsequent baked goods. However, the performance and safety of the mold were not compromised. To eliminate this problem, we recommend boiling the product in water for a few minutes.

 

Application of silicone mold

 

Silicone mold is a tool for producing silicone products, an indispensable tool in the silicone industry. The precision and quality of silicone molds are the most important factors that determine the quality of silicone products in all aspects, so I want to produce a high-end silicone Products, silicone molds in terms of precision and quality should also use better materials and manufacturing processes.

 

The mold is made of many parts and steel. The manufacturing process of the mold is more complicated, and it will be manufactured according to different needs, so the appearance and structure of the mold are different. Mainly in the internal structure, cavity, mold size, number of parts. If the size of the customized product is small, the calculation and manufacture of the size, material, and number of parts of the mold will naturally be carried out according to the actual proportion of the product in the calculation of cost.

 

The use of molds is also relatively extensive. In addition to the silicone industry, it can also be used in the production of other industries: mainly used in plastic products, stationery, gypsum technology, mold manufacturing, sculpture technology and other industries; therefore, silicone molds are used in the silicone industry. is very important.
