We usually say that 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, liquid silica gel has a certain viscosity, usually more dense than water, therefore, fluidity is not as strong as water.

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

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, silica gel mold made by mold silica gel has great advantages in production efficiency and production cost. Today, mold silica gel has been widely used in toy gift industry, medical, electronic, mechanical fields, figure replication, home building decoration industry, unsaturated resin handicraft industry, simulation animal and plant sculpture, Buddha carving handicraft and other industries of mold production.

2, pad printing silica gel

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

3. Electronic potting silica gel

Electronic potting liquid silica gel is mainly used for the potting of electronic products, the use of electronic potting liquid silica gel can play a sealing, waterproof, dustproof, thermal conductivity, shockproof, insulation and other roles on electronic products. In addition, one is used for LED potting glue, with high transparency, high refractive index characteristics.

4, hand silica gel

Hand plate liquid silica gel, also known as the first silica gel, is usually used to make hand plate model, compared to hand plate oil mud liquid silica gel has the characteristics of wear resistance and strong resilience after curing.

5, silicone rubber

Silicone glue is what we usually call glass glue, it is also a kind of liquid silicone. Silicone glue in the use of the process of adding the curing agent, water molecules in the air can be cured into a tough solid, so as to achieve the bonding between the glass gap. After curing silicone adhesive has the characteristics of weather resistance, vibration resistance, and moisture-proof, odor resistance and adapt to big changes in cold and heat.

6, clothing labels silicone branch

Liquid clothing label silica gel curing is we often see the clothing manufacturer silica gel label. The use of liquid silica gel to make clothing signs with good hand feel, wear resistance, high production efficiency.

7, high temperature silica gel

The common high temperature mold silica gel used for making silica gel mold can withstand high temperature between 200~300 degrees Celsius, and the high temperature liquid silica gel used in aviation and bronzing industries can work at 400℃ to 1300℃ for a long time without performance change.
