2. Spin casting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_casting

   The spin casting process typically uses vulcanized silicone or organic rubber as the mold-making substrate. Vulcanization is an integral step that occurs halfway through the mold-making process. Prior to vulcanization, the mold rubber is a soft and malleable solid-like fluid, in many ways very similar to Silly Putty. Because of the clay-like ...

3. Injection molding of liquid silicone rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Injection_molding_of...

   Injection molding of liquid silicone rubber (LSR) is a process to produce pliable, durable parts in high volume. Liquid silicone rubber is a high purity platinum cured silicone with low compression set, good stability and ability to resist extreme temperatures of heat and cold ideally suitable for production of parts, where high quality is ...

4. RTV silicone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTV_silicone

   If making a brush-on rubber mold, the curing time factor between coats is long (longer than urethanes or polysulfides, shorter than latex). Silicone components (A+B) must be mixed accurately by weight (scale required) or else they do not work. Tin-catalyst silicone shrinks somewhat and does not have a long shelf life.

5. Silicone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone

   Formerol is a silicone rubber (marketed as Sugru) used as an arts-and-crafts material, as its plasticity allows it to be molded by hand like modeling clay. It hardens at room temperature and it is adhesive to various substances including glass and aluminum. [26] Oogoo is an inexpensive silicone clay, which can be used as a substitute for Sugru ...

6. Vacuum casting (elastomers) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_casting_(elastomers)

   The process starts by placing a two piece silicone mold in a vacuum chamber. The raw material is mixed, degassed and then poured into the mold. The vacuum is then released and the mold removed from the chamber. Finally, the casting is cured in an oven and the mold removed to release the completed casting. The silicone mold can be reused.

7. Release agent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Release_agent

   The silicone keeps the rubber from sticking to the mold but just as important it lubricates the rubber so it will slide over the hot mold as it is loaded. Diluted silicone typically has to be applied every cycle. Semi-permanent mold release builds a silicone matrix on the mold that becomes a barrier between the rubber and the metal surface of ...
