Quick Details:
Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) is a two-part, platinum-cured silicone elastomer that is used in various applications, including mold making, prototyping, and industrial manufacturing. It is a versatile material that offers several advantages over traditional solid silicone rubber. LSR is typically composed of two liquid components: a base (part A) and a curing agent or catalyst (part B). These two components are mixed together in specific ratios to initiate the curing process. The curing mechanism of LSR is based on a platinum-catalyzed addition reaction, which forms strong crosslinks between the polymer chains, resulting in a solid elastomer..
Features:
1. High purity and low levels of impurities
2. Excellent flexibility and elongation properties
3. Wide temperature range from -50°C to 250°C
4. Resistant to oils, solvents, and some acids
5. Fast curing time, low VOC content
6. Easily pigmented, offering a wide range of colors
Advantages:
Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) offers several advantages for resin molds. Its flexibility allows for easy demolding of resin castings without the need for releasing agents, ensuring clean and precise results. LSR's excellent tear resistance and dimensional stability ensure the longevity and durability of the mold, allowing for repeated use without deformation or damage. The high-quality surface finish of LSR molds captures intricate details and textures, providing accurate reproduction of the original pattern or model. LSR's thermal resistance enables it to withstand the curing temperatures of resin materials, ensuring reliable and consistent mold performance. Its low shrinkage properties contribute to the precise replication of the original object. Moreover, LSR's easy moldability and good flow properties facilitate the creation of complex mold designs and intricate shapes. Overall, LSR is a reliable and efficient choice for resin molds, offering excellent demolding properties, durability, and high-quality results.
