IV. Environmental Friendliness and Safety Compatibility
The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) content of the organic silicone release agent is less than 0.5%, which is much lower than the 15%-30% of solvent-based release agents. Moreover, its decomposition products are silica and water, which are non-toxic and harmless. This characteristic enables it to be widely used in high-safety standard fields such as food packaging containers and medical devices. For instance, the water-based organic silicone emulsion release agent has passed FDA certification and can be directly used in the molding process of infant milk bottles.
V. Process Adaptability and Function Expansion
Through molecular design, organic silicone release agents can be derived into various formulations such as aerosol, ointment, and water-based emulsion, which can adapt to different process requirements. The spray uniformity of aerosol products reaches ±5 μm, suitable for complex curved surface molds; the oil-based type can enhance the film thickness by adding silica fume to meet the release requirements for rough surface molds. In addition, modified organic silicone release agents can integrate functions such as lubrication, rust prevention, and polishing, achieving "one agent for multiple uses" in the formation of aerospace composite materials, thereby simplifying the process flow.
From automobile manufacturing to electronic packaging, from daily necessities to high-end equipment, organosilicon release agents are reshaping the industrial molding field with their technological advantages. With the advancement of materials science, their application boundaries will continue to expand, providing more efficient solutions for intelligent manufacturing.
