Custom Silicone Molding- Top Silicone Manufacturer Near Me

 Silicone molding is a popular manufacturing process used across various industries. It involves creating a mold and then filling it with liquid silicone, which is then cured to create a solid, rubber-like product. One of the most important considerations in silicone molding is the type of curing process used.

There are two main types of curing processes for silicone: platinum cured and peroxide cured. Both processes have their advantages and disadvantages, and the choice between them depends on the specific application and requirements.

Standard and custom silicone parts Silicone is used to create a wide range of custom and standard products at NEWTOP Custom Silicone. With its flexibility, longevity and exceptional temperature resistance properties, the material is incredibly versatile and used for masking parts, plugs, medical components and much more. Products made from silicone deliver strength and flexibility, providing the protection you need to protect equipment or operate reliably even in the harshest working environments. Plus, with silicone’s resiliency, these parts can provide longer service life than comparable parts made with other materials, providing additional trust and cost savings for end users. Material Benefits Offers wide temperature range from -148°F to 600°F (-100°C to 315°C) Inorganic synthetic elastomer rubber Made from cross-linked silicone-based polymer, reinforced with filler Ideal for many applications Provides longer service life in adverse environments




Platinum cured silicone Platinum cured silicone is often preferred over peroxide cured silicone due to its higher purity and lack of byproducts. It is also more expensive and requires more specialized equipment and expertise to work with. Platinum cured silicone is commonly used in applications where purity is critical, such as in the medical and food industries.

Peroxide cured silicone
Peroxide cured silicone, on the other hand, is less expensive and easier to work with. It is commonly used in applications where a lower level of purity is acceptable, such as in the automotive industry. Peroxide cured silicone can also be used in applications where post-curing is required, as it can be heat cured at higher temperatures than platinum cured silicone.
Both platinum cured and peroxide cured silicone have their advantages and disadvantages, and the choice between them depends on the specific application and requirements. It is important to consult with a professional to ensure the best results for your silicone molding project.

What is Liquid Injection Moulding?

  I. What is liquid silicone rubber molding? Liquid silicone rubber (LSR) molding, sometimes called liquid injection molding (LIM), is a thermosetting process in which two compounds are mixed and then heat-cured using a platinum catalyst inside a mold to create flexible silicone parts. Low compression permanent deformation and the ability to resist extreme temperatures make LSR molded pieces durable and ideal for challenging applications. LSR elastomers offer superior optical clarity, durability, and design flexibility while operating over a wide temperature range (-50℃ to 250℃). LSR injection molding is suitable for manufacturing complex geometric shapes, and because of its design and mold flexibility, multiple functional components can be combined into a single part. LIM has considerable advantages in terms of product reliability and total tooling cost. II.How is LSR different from injection molding? LSR molding is very similar to the way traditional injection molded parts are ...

  Liquid silicone adhesive refers to a layer of liquid silicone coated on metal, rubber, plastic, and other materials. It uses some properties of liquid silicone itself to play a good hand feeling, aging resistance, good release, anti-slip, dustproof, waterproof, and sealing functions. The liquid silicone coating process generally includes three parts: bottom treatment, bottom coating, and liquid silicone. The following steps are detailed. Treatment of the bottom: The bottom surface of the liquid silicone should be treated well before the package. It is mainly to ensure that the surface of the coated rubber is smooth and flawless, so as not to crack the adhesive when the force is applied; In addition, it is necessary to test whether the surface of the adhesive is clean and whether there is no oil. If there is oil, it needs to be cleaned with xylene and other solvents. Primer: Generally liquid silicone is non-stick with other materials (except solid silicone), so the material at the...

I. Silicone Rubber ’s structure What is the organic silicone rubber: The basic structure of the organic silicon products unit is composed of a silicon-oxygen link,  and the side chain is connected by various kinds of organic silicone atoms and other groups. Therefore, in the structure of the organic silicone products containing both "organic groups", and "inorganic" structure, the special composition and molecular structure to make it combines the characteristics of organic matter and inorganic matter functions in one. And compared to other polymer materials, the most outstanding performances of organic silicone products include: (1) Heat resistance properties Organic silicone products are based on a silicon (Si) 0 oxygen key chain structure, the bond energy of the C - C key is 82.6 kcal/mol, while the bond energy of the Si - 0 key is 121 kcal/mol, silicone products own thermal stability. Under high temperature (or radiation exposure) molecular bonds will not break ...
