Liquid silicone gel for condensation type molds is a commonly used material for making molds. Its main characteristics include good fluidity, high elasticity, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, and other excellent properties, making it suitable for making molds with complex shapes and high precision. However, due to its long curing time, it can affect the production cycle, so how to shorten the curing time has become an important concern for production personnel.

1. Increase the dosage of hardener
Hardener is one of the key factors in the curing of silicone gel. Increasing the dosage of hardener can effectively shorten the curing time. However, excessive amount of hardener can affect the quality and performance of silicone gel. Therefore, when increasing the dosage of hardener, it is necessary to make appropriate adjustments and controls to avoid affecting the quality of the product.

2. Increase the curing temperature
The curing temperature is also one of the important factors affecting the curing time of silicone gel. Raising the curing temperature within a certain range can accelerate the curing of silicone, but excessively high curing temperatures can cause defects such as bubbles and discoloration in silicone, thereby affecting the quality of the product.

3. Increase pressure
Adding appropriate pressure during the curing process of silicone can accelerate the curing time. This is because pressure can promote cross-linking between silicone molecules, thereby accelerating the curing process. However, excessive pressure can cause defects such as indentation and deformation in silicone, so it is necessary to make appropriate adjustments and controls.

4. Use accelerators
Accelerator is a special chemical substance that can accelerate the curing speed of silicone gel. There are many types of accelerators, and different types of accelerators are suitable for different silicone materials and curing conditions. Therefore, when selecting accelerators, it is necessary to choose and use them according to specific circumstances.
In summary, the shortening of the solidification time of liquid silicone gel for condensation type molds requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. In actual production, it is necessary to choose appropriate methods for adjustment and control according to specific situations to ensure the quality and performance of the products.
