Silicone rubber is a unique material that is often used in the manufacturing of different products due to its many benefits such as high resistance to temperature and harsh chemicals, good flexibility, and ability to maintain its shape even in extreme environments. These characteristics make silicone rubber products highly desirable in industries such as automotive, cooking utensils, clothing and footwear, electronics, and medical devices. Silicone is also known for its biocompatibility and ease of manufacture.
Silicone is a non-reactive and chemically stable material composed of silicon together with carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur. It is very durable and resists a wide range of temperatures from -55 degC to +300 degC. It can also be molded into a variety of shapes. Silicone is one of the most popular types of rubber. There are a number of different types of silicone rubber and each type has its own set of properties. Some of the most common types include abrasion resistant, anti-aging, heat-resistant, low-temperature flexibility, and anti-fungal.
There are various types of liquid silicone rubber available to suit the needs of different applications. Some are designed for moldmaking while others are designed for industrial use. These types of silicones can be either condensation cure or addition curing, depending on the chemical chemistry. Addition cure silicones require a platinum catalyst for curing. Condensation cure silicones do not require a catalyst and are generally considered to be more user friendly.
Mouldmaking RTV silicones are liquid rubbers that can be cured by room temperature vulcanisation (RTV). These silicones are used to produce high-quality negative moulds for architecture and industrial design, jewellery, or food. They are also suitable for casting plaster, wax, and other materials. The cured molds are flexible and strong enough for repeated uses.
This mold making silicone is a thick liquid with a consistency similar to tick latex rubber. It has a 1:1 mix ratio and a pot life (working time) of 10 minutes at room temperature. It is non-toxic and dries clear, but can be colored with paints or dyes. It is safe to store & use in cold temperatures and is easy to pour. It is also able to be used for casting epoxy resin, cement-gypsum moulds, statues and other art, craft, and spare parts.liquid silicone rubber suppliers in sri lanka
