Product Overview
Our Flexible Statuary Mold Silicone is a professional RTV 2 Silicone Rubber developed for flexible statuary mold making and product replication. As a leading manufacturer of Industrial mold silicone rubber and liquid silicone, we optimize the formula for the flexible and high-precision requirements of statuary production, focusing on flexibility, fluidity, low shrinkage and reusability. Compared with ordinary mold silicone, it has better flexibility, higher mold replication accuracy, more mold turns and longer service life, perfectly reproducing delicate lines and complex shapes of statuaries without deformation or damage, effectively reducing production costs for procurement partners.
Key Features & Advantages
1. Superior Flexibility & Deformability: High flexibility after curing, easy to bend and stretch, perfectly fitting the curved surfaces and complex shapes of statuaries, easy to demold even for irregular or intricate statuary structures, without damaging the mold or the replicated statuary.
2. High Precision & Low Shrinkage: Shrinkage rate ≤0.2%, ensuring high-precision replication of statuary details, perfectly restoring delicate lines, textures and subtle structures, meeting the strict aesthetic requirements of high-end statuaries and crafts.
3. Excellent Fluidity & Easy Operation: Low viscosity and excellent fluidity, easily flowing into tiny gaps of statuary prototypes, suitable for making molds of statuaries with complex patterns or delicate details; simple operation, no professional skills required, improving mold making efficiency.
4. High Durability & Reusability: Good tensile and tear strength, high temperature and acid-alkali resistance, no swelling or aging, supporting multiple mold turns (up to 50+ times depending on statuary size), reusable, greatly reducing mold making costs for procurement partners.
5. Easy Demolding & Versatility: Smooth surface after curing, good release performance, easy to demold without leaving residues, ensuring the integrity and aesthetics of the replicated statuaries; suitable for various statuaries, POLI crafts, resin crafts, candles and art gifts, compatible with small-batch customization and large-scale production.
How to Use (3 Mold Making Methods)
1. Cladding Mold Method
- Prepare the statuary prototype, clean it thoroughly and dry it to ensure no dust or moisture affects mold adhesion and flexibility.
- Mix the silicone (Component A) and curing agent (Component B) at a weight ratio of 100:2, stir slowly and evenly to avoid generating air bubbles, which will affect the mold’s flexibility and precision.
- Enclose the statuary prototype with a mold frame, pour the mixed silicone into the frame, and place it in a vacuum machine for degassing to eliminate air bubbles completely.
- Let the silicone cure naturally at room temperature; after full curing, gently bend the flexible mold to demold carefully, obtaining a high-precision, flexible statuary mold.
2. Brushing Mold Method
Brush the evenly mixed silicone onto the surface of the statuary prototype in 2-3 layers, each layer dried before brushing the next to ensure uniform thickness and flexibility; after full curing, add a supporting frame to enhance mold stability, then bend and demold for use.
3. Casting Mold Method
Pour the mixed and degassed silicone directly into the mold frame containing the statuary prototype, ensure the prototype is fully covered; after natural curing, bend the flexible mold to demold easily, and the mold is ready for statuary replication.
Application Scenarios
This specialized flexiblemold making silicone is widely used in precision mold manufacturing and product replication of various statuaries, including resin statuaries, stone-like statuaries, decorative statuaries, POLI crafts, art gifts, candles, toys and products with complex or delicate patterns. It is suitable for both small-batch customization and large-scale production, helping procurement partners improve statuary production efficiency, ensure product consistency, reduce mold making costs, and enhance product competitiveness in the global statuary and craft market.
