Distinguish by appearance
Liquid silica gel is a liquid state, with liquidity;Solid silica gel is solid and has no fluidity.
Distinguish from the field of use
1, liquid silica gel is generally used in baby products and kitchen supplies as well as medical supplies, which can directly contact food and human body.
2, solid silica gel is generally used in daily necessities and industrial miscellaneous parts and auto parts.
3, liquid silica gel and solid silica gel safety: liquid silica gel is a high transparent and high safety food grade material, molding without adding vulcanizing agent and other auxiliary materials, sealed feeding molding.Solid silica gel is a transparent material, vulcanizing agent needs to be added to accelerate the vulcanization molding time, open mold feeding molding.
Distinguish from molding way
1, liquid silica gel is injection molding liquid silicone rubber (LSR) : full name is injection molding liquid silicone rubber, curing equipment for injection molding machine.Injection molding machine process is very simple, high product degree, high yield (A/B glue mixed in A few seconds at A certain temperature molding), save people, save electricity, save materials and other advantages, can produce all high temperature glue production products;It is a mainstream of silicone rubber material development in the future.
2. Solid silica gel molding is the raw material is a piece of solid. After mixing by the mixer, the material cutting machine cuts the product and the mold into the appropriate size and thickness, and then puts it into the mold.Demoulding and plastic products are similar, but also need to clean the mold.
Distinguish from the production of finished products
Liquid silica gel has high transparency, no peculiar smell, and the product has a glue injection mouth;
Solid silicone transparent bottom, vulcanizing agent or other cover vulcanizing agent fragrance, the product without glue injection mouth.
What is the difference between liquid and solid silicone products?
Liquid silica gel is a flow channel type injection molding, the product transparency and tear strength will be better;Products fly less.Products made from solid silica gel are not so good in tear resistance, elongation and transparency;And more waste edge.
How much is the life of liquid and solid silica gel machine?
1, solid silica gel machine has simple structure, simple process, mold materials generally do not do heat treatment, solid silica gel mold life within 100,000 times.
2, liquid silica gel machine structure is more complex, the mold core will basically do heat treatment.And liquid silica gel material viscosity is low, low hardness after molding, production materials and products will not produce any wear and tear on the mold.
3, so the life of the liquid silica gel mold can reach 500,000 to 2 million times, and it can be maintained well, and even longer.Liquid silica gel machine life than solid silica gel machine life is up to 5~20 times, if you want to do high life, high quality products recommended to choose liquid silica gel machine.
