Recently many new customers have asked us how to improve the aging resistance of products made of silicone molds?
The common symptoms of aging of silicone products are discoloration, hardening, brittleness, yellowing, and easy cracking. The fundamental solution to this type of problem lies in the selection of raw materials and processing and production techniques. Please refer to the following points when choosing materials:
1. Find raw material manufacturers, test samples and compare the performance and quality of materials. After all, you get what you pay for. Think about cheap materials. If the manufacturer wants to control costs and still make profits, how many high-quality raw materials can it provide you? Just think about it.
2. According to the products and needs you need, explain to the supplier and let them recommend the appropriate one. For example, by cooperating with Shenzhen Hongtu Silicone, we can customize the material according to your needs to achieve the ultimate performance.
3. The use of materials, that is, the operating process. It should be used according to the usage. Do not mix other materials into the silica gel unless it is used for special purposes. This will easily destroy the performance of the silica gel.
4. Maintenance of silicone products. If silicone is exposed to high temperature, low temperature, exposure, high acidity, alkalinity, highly corrosive solvents and environments for a long time, it will also easily cause silicone to age, so appropriate adjustments are required.
