What is the difference between liquid silicone and solid silicone

Hits: 441 img

What we usually call silica gel has two physical states, one is a flowing liquid; One is solid. Non-solid silica gel that can flow like water is called liquid silica gel; Of course, the liquid silica gel has a certain viscosity, and is usually more dense than water, so the fluidity is not as strong as water.

Liquid silica gel will cure after encountering curing agent or catalyst, and will cure into solid silica gel with different hardness and different properties according to different types of liquid silica gel.

Liquid silica gel can be divided into:
1, mold silica gel
Liquid silica gel is a new type of mold material. Compared with steel mold, silicone gel has great advantages in production efficiency and production cost. Today, mold silica gel has been widely used in toy and gift industry, medical, electronics, mechanical fields, character reproduction, home building decoration industry, unsaturated resin crafts industry, artificial animal and plant sculpture, Buddha sculpture crafts and other industries of mold making.

2, pad printing silicone
Pad printing liquid silica gel is used to make pad printing adhesive head, mainly used for plastic toys, electroplating products, electronic toys, trademarks, irregular pattern printing. Pad printing glue head is to make the pattern on the steel plate as a carrier through the glue head, and then transfer the pattern on the steel plate to the toy product. Pad printing liquid silicone can be controlled by adding silicone oil to control the hardness.

3, electronic potting silicone
Electronic potting liquid silica gel is mainly used for the potting of electronic products, the use of electronic potting liquid silica gel can seal electronic products, waterproof, dustproof, thermal conductivity, shock-proof, insulation and other functions. In addition, one is a potting adhesive for LED, which has the characteristics of high transparency and high refractive index.

4, hand plate silicone
Liquid silica gel is also known as the first version of silica gel, which is usually used to make the model of the hand board. Compared with the liquid silica gel of the hand board, the liquid silica gel of the hand board has the characteristics of wear-resistant and strong resilience after curing.

5. Silicone glue
Silicone glue is what we usually call glass glue, which is also a kind of liquid silicone. Silicone glue in the use of disorderly addition of curing agents, water molecules in the air can be cured into a tough solid, so as to achieve the bond between the glass gaps. The cured silicone adhesive has the characteristics of weather resistance, vibration resistance, moisture resistance, odor resistance and adaptability to hot and cold changes.

6, clothing signs silicone branch
Liquid clothing signs after silicone curing is we often see the clothing manufacturer's silicone signs. The use of liquid silica gel to make clothing signs has the characteristics of good hand feel, wear resistance and high production efficiency.

7, high temperature silicone
Ordinary high temperature mold for the production of silica gel mold silica gel can withstand high temperatures between 200 and 300 degrees Celsius, and for aviation and stamping industries such as high temperature liquid silica gel curing can work for a long time in the environment of 400 ° C to 1300 ° C without performance changes.

8, human silicone
Human silicone is a kind of liquid silicone with low curing hardness, which is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, and has no adverse effects on human objects, so it can be implanted into the human body and is usually used to make prosthetics. It can also be used to simulate characters.
