ELASTOSIL® AUX MOLD RELEASE AGENT 32 is an auxiliary that helps to improve demolding of tools for injection and compression molding. ELASTOSIL® AUX MOLD RELEASE AGENT 32 should especially be applied when using new molds to reduce the initial deforming forces.
Processing
- To obtain a good release effect, an aqueous solution of 0.1 - 1 % of ELASTOSIL® AUX MOULD RELEASE AGENT 32 in water is sprayed on the hot mold. As an alternative a 1 - 2 % solution is applied to the hot mold with a brush.
- For new molds the following procedure is recommended: Treatment of the new mold with ELASTOSIL® AUX MOULD RELEASE AGENT 32 should be repeated every 2 - 3 injection cycles.
- After 20 cycles the mold should have excellent demanding properties without further application of the release agent. Extensive application of ELASTOSIL® AUX MOULD RELEASE AGENT 32 could lead to an impairment of the demolding properties of the mold and should therefore be avoided.
