Product Features & Advantages
1. Precision Animal Detail Replication: Superior fluidity penetrates fine gaps, perfectly restoring animal fur, facial expressions, and body contours, making gypsum products vivid and realistic.
2. Gypsum-Adaptable Release: Cured silicone has excellent non-adhesive performance, ensuring smooth demolding without damaging gypsum surfaces or losing details.
3. High Durability: High tensile and tear resistance, supporting 40~70 mold turns, reducing mold replacement frequency and lowering batch production costs.
4. Safe & Compliant: FDA-certified Food grade mold silicone, non-toxic, odorless, environmentally friendly, complying with global industrial and craft safety standards. 5. Flexible Operation: Room temperature or heat curable, simple 1:1 mixing ratio, adapting to manual crafting and semi-automatic mass production.
6. Full Customization: Color, viscosity, operating time, and curing time can be tailored to match different animal designs and gypsum molding processes.
How to Use
1. Mix Part A and Part B in a 1:1 weight ratio, stirring thoroughly for 2~3 minutes until the mixture is uniform and free of streaks or air bubbles.
2. Perform vacuum degassing on the mixed silicone for 2~5 minutes; adjust time according to silicone viscosity, weight, and vacuum strength to eliminate all bubbles.
3. Pour the degassed silicone slowly into the animal master mold frame, ensuring full coverage of all delicate details (fur, claws, expressions).
4. Cure at room temperature (4~5 hours) or heat (80~120℃ for tens of minutes) until fully set and firm.
5. Demold gently, clean the silicone mold, and it’s ready for gypsum casting, ensuring intact details and smooth surfaces.
Application Scenarios
This liquid silicone is mainly used for gypsum animal mold manufacturing, including gypsum animal crafts, garden animal ornaments, indoor decorative animal statues, and children’s gypsum DIY kits. It’s also applicable to epoxy resin animal crafts, concrete garden animals, precision Prototype silicone for animal designs, and rapid prototyping. It helps manufacturers create popular, high-quality animal-themed products, enhance market competitiveness, and meet the diverse needs of global craft, decoration, and toy markets.
FAQ
1. Can it replicate fine animal details like fur or small claws? Yes, its excellent fluidity ensures clear replication of even the finest details, making gypsum animals more realistic and vivid.
2. Is it suitable for large gypsum animal molds (e.g., garden statues)? Absolutely, it supports deep curing without thickness limitations, ideal for large or thick gypsum animal molds.
3. How many times can the mold be reused? With high durability, it can be reused 40~70 times, depending on the complexity of the animal shape and usage frequency.
4. Does it prevent gypsum adhesion during demolding? Yes, the cured silicone has excellent release performance, avoiding gypsum sticking and ensuring smooth demolding.
5. Can the formula be adjusted for different gypsum types? Yes, we can customize viscosity and curing time to fit different gypsum materials, reducing operational difficulty and improving product quality.
