Product Features & Advantages
1. Strict Food-Grade Safety: FDA-certified food grade Mold Silicone, non-toxic, odorless, tasteless, non-irritating, fully complying with global food contact standards, ensuring ice cream purity and safety for all ages. 2. Ultra-Soft Elasticity: 15~28 Shore A ultra-soft hardness, flexible and stretchable, enabling easy demolding of frozen ice cream without breaking or deformation, reducing scrap rate significantly.
3. Excellent Low-Temperature Resistance: Withstands -60℃ extreme low temperature without brittleness, maintaining soft texture and mold integrity during long-term freezing, adapting to all ice cream freezing processes.
4. Precision Detail Replication: Superior fluidity penetrates tiny gaps, perfectly restoring ice cream shapes, decorative patterns, and edges, matching the soft mold’s practicality with aesthetic appeal.
5. High Durability: High tensile and tear resistance, even with ultra-soft texture, it supports 40~70 mold turns, lowering replacement costs for batch production.
6. Full Customization: Softness (hardness), color, shape, operating time, and curing time can be tailored to match different production needs.
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 (key for detail replication).
3. Pour the degassed silicone slowly into the ice cream master mold frame, ensuring full coverage of all details and edges.
4. Cure at room temperature (4~5 hours) or heat (80~120℃ for tens of minutes) until fully set, forming an ultra-soft elastic mold.
5. Demold gently, clean the soft silicone mold thoroughly, and it’s ready for ice cream pouring, freezing, and easy demolding.
Application Scenarios
This food-grade soft liquid silicone is mainly used for soft ice cream mold manufacturing, including commercial ultra-soft popsicle molds, cartoon-themed soft ice cream molds, home-use DIY soft mold kits, mini ice cream portion molds, and delicate decorative ice cream molds. It’s also applicable to frozen yogurt molds, sorbet soft molds, food decoration molds, and precision Prototype silicone for soft ice cream mold design. It helps manufacturers create safe, easy-to-use, attractive ice cream products, enhance brand competitiveness, and meet diverse needs of global dessert and frozen food markets.
