High Flow Platinum Silicone for Detailed Mold Replication

Powered by Shenzhen Jianghe New Materials

With 17+ years of polymer expertise, we develop specialized silicone formulations for precision applications. Our R&D team focuses on viscosity control and flow optimization to meet the demanding requirements of detailed mold making in artistic and technical fields.

When creating highly detailed molds, even microscopic air bubbles can ruin surface accuracy. Our high flow platinum silicone is specifically engineered for artists, sculptors, and precision mold makers who require flawless replication without vacuum degassing.

Why High Flow Matters:

The optimized viscosity (2,000-5,000 mPa.s) allows the material to penetrate intricate textures and micro-patterns with minimal resistance. Unlike standard silicones that may trap air in deep cavities, our formulation's controlled flow ensures complete wetting of the master model surface.

Key Performance Benefits:

• Superior Detail Capture: The material flows into every crevice, reproducing fine engravings, textures, and complex geometries with exceptional fidelity.
• Bubble-Free Results: Enhanced self-degassing properties mean bubbles rise and escape naturally within 2 hours, eliminating the need for vacuum equipment in most applications.
• Visual Quality Control: High transparency lets you inspect the mold cavity for defects before investing expensive resins or waxes in casting.
• Delicate Demolding: Despite its strength, the material remains flexible enough to release complex parts without damage, preserving fine features.
• Versatile Hardness Options: Available from Shore A 10 to 30, allowing you to select the perfect balance of flexibility and durability for your specific project.

Detailed Technical Specifications

For Optimal Detail Reproduction:
1. Prepare Master Model: Ensure the model is clean, dry, and sealed. For 3D printed masters, post-cure thoroughly and apply a sealer if needed.
2. Mix Gently: Combine Parts A and B at 1:1 ratio. Mix slowly to avoid introducing bubbles—scrape sides and bottom thoroughly.
3. Strategic Pouring: Pour from the highest point in a thin, continuous stream. This allows the silicone to flow naturally into details and push air out.
4. Settling Period: Allow the poured silicone to sit for 5-10 minutes before moving. This resting period lets bubbles rise and escape.
5. Cure and Demold: Cure at room temperature for 3-5 hours. For faster turnaround, mild heat (50-60°C) accelerates curing to 30-60 minutes.
6. Post-Cure: For optimal properties, allow molds to post-cure for 24 hours before first use.

Precautions for Mold Silicone:
1. Avoid sulfur-based modeling clays which can inhibit cure.
2. For very deep, narrow cavities, consider vacuum degassing for absolute certainty.
3. Support thin mold sections with a rigid mother mold during casting.
4. Store away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
5. Test with new master materials before full production.

Shelf Life:
Unopened packaging at room temperature (25°C): 12 months. Finished silicone molds can be stored for up to six months without loss of performance.

Storage and Transportation:
1.Mold silicone should be stored at room temperature in a dry, sealed container. Avoid contact with water to prevent deterioration.
2.This product is classified as non-hazardous for transportation.

Applications & Project Gallery

A. Jewelry and Lost Wax Casting
Jewelry designers use this high flow silicone to capture every engraved detail of their wax carvings. The resulting molds produce precise castings for rings, pendants, and brooches with intricate filigree work that would be impossible with standard materials.

B. Collectible Figurine Manufacturing
Producers of limited edition figurines rely on this material to replicate facial features, clothing textures, and accessory details faithfully across multiple casts. The high flow ensures that even undercuts and fine details are reproduced perfectly.

C. Art Reproduction for Galleries
Sculptors create master molds of their original work, enabling them to produce numbered editions while preserving the original. The silicone's clarity helps detect any imperfections before casting expensive materials.

D. Custom Texture Plates for Ceramics
Ceramic artists use textured molds made with this silicone to imprint patterns onto clay, creating unique surface designs for pottery and tiles. The detail reproduction ensures consistent texture transfer.

FAQ:

Q1: Can I use this high flow silicone without a vacuum pump for detailed molds?
A: Yes, for most molds under 2cm thickness, vacuum is optional. The optimized flow and self-degassing properties handle most applications. For extremely critical surfaces, vacuum is still recommended.

Q2: What hardness works best for molds with complex undercuts?
A: We recommend 10-15A for parts with severe undercuts. The flexibility allows easy demolding without damaging delicate features, while still maintaining good tear strength.

Q3: Will this silicone work with 3D printed resin masters?
A: Yes, but ensure prints are fully cured and cleaned. Some resins contain inhibitors—we recommend applying a clear sealant or testing a small area first.

Q4: How many casts can I expect from one mold made with this silicone?
A: With proper care, 50-100+ casts depending on part complexity and casting material. The high tear strength ensures long mold life even with repeated use.

Q5: Is this silicone suitable for casting epoxy resin?

A: Absolutely. The high transparency allows you to see resin flow and check for bubbles during casting, and the flexibility ensures easy demolding of cured resin parts.
