Product Features & Advantages
FDA Food-Grade Safety: Certified food grade Mold Silicone , non-toxic, odorless, and tasteless, fully complying with global food contact regulations to ensure chocolate purity and safety.
Precision Detail Replication: Exceptional fluidity allows the liquid silicone to fill tiny cavities, perfectly capturing intricate chocolate patterns, logos, and 3D contours for premium finished products.
Thermal Stability: Withstands extreme temperatures from chocolate melting (up to 250℃) to cooling (as low as -60℃) without deformation or brittleness, adapting to the entire production process.
Easy Demolding & Durability: Smooth, non-stick cured surface ensures damage-free demolding, while high tensile and tear resistance supports 50–80 mold turns, reducing replacement costs.
Customizable Formulation: Color, hardness, operating time, and curing time are fully customizable to match different chocolate mold designs and production line speeds.
Efficient Processing: 1:1 mix ratio and room/heat curing flexibility simplify operation, eliminating the need for complex equipment and reducing production downtime.
How to Use (Step-by-Step)
Mix Components: Combine Part A and Part B in a 1:1 weight ratio, stirring thoroughly for 2–3 minutes until the mixture is uniform and streak-free.
Vacuum Degassing: Place the mixed silicone in a vacuum chamber for 2–5 minutes to remove air bubbles (adjust time based on viscosity and vacuum strength—critical for bubble-free chocolate molds).
Pour & Fill: Slowly pour the degassed silicone into the chocolate master mold frame, ensuring full coverage of all intricate details and contours.
Cure: Allow to cure at room temperature (4–5 hours) or heat at 80–120℃ for accelerated curing (tens of minutes) until fully set and elastic.
Demold & Prepare: Gently demold the silicone mold, clean it thoroughly, and it is ready for chocolate melting, pouring, cooling, and demolding.
