Why recommend liquid silicone

In the production process of customized silicone products, the technology of silicone products determines its value and market. At present, liquid injection molding and solid molding processes are more common processing methods, and food-grade liquid silicone is made of platinum catalyst. The processing technology of the product can be said to be a high-quality product. Compared to those who understand the processing process of silicone rubber products, as long as they can accept the production and processing costs, they will basically choose the liquid silicone technology. What is the choice? What are its outstanding advantages?

Liquid silicone has transparency, strong tear resistance, resilience, yellow resistance, thermal stability, water resistance, good air permeability, aging resistance, and weather resistance. At the same time, it has moderate viscosity, good fluidity, easy operation, and high product transparency. .

The liquid injection molding of liquid silicone rubber, which began in the 1970s, has gradually become popular. Nowadays, as a molding method of silicone rubber, it has been approved. First, the commonly used LIMS method will be explained.

If LIMS (Liquid Silicone Rubber Injection Molding) is explained in one sentence, it is the method of using a pump to transfer the addition-curing liquid silicone rubber to an injection molding machine and curing and molding in the model. From the differences between the two processes and the curing reaction, the advantages of LIMS are:

(1) Save manpower: materialize, measure, mix, inject and other processes to realize continuous automation and reduce power consumption

(2) It can improve production efficiency: shorten the molding cycle by fast curing.

(3) Can improve product quality: no reaction by-products are generated, and no impurities are mixed in

(4) Suitable for composite molding: Because the material has good fluidity, low molding pressure, and a wide curing temperature range, it can be used for composite molding in addition to insert molding.
