Why is transparent silicone products yellow?
TransparentSilicone ProductsNormal put a few years will not yellow, but sometimes in production, some newly released transparent silicone products look yellow, as if the color has changed. Why does transparent silicone products turn yellow?
The properties of 1. vulcanizing agents are divided into ordinary type and anti-yellowing.
1. Ordinary type does not resist yellow vulcanizing agent, applied to some non-exposed silicone products that can be used for relatively deep color or low color requirements. 2. Anti-yellowing vulcanizing agent is applied to products that need to be exposed, lighter and brighter in color, and have higher color requirements.
In terms of 2. process, when transparent silicone products are molded, poor control of the production process leads to the color of transparent silicone products turning yellow after molding. The main problems are: 1. The mold temperature is too high 2. The vulcanization time is too long 3. After secondary sulfur addition
3. the quality of the raw material itself is too poor, sometimes we add anti-yellowing vulcanizing agent to the rubber compound, but the transparent silica gel product still looks yellow after molding, it may be that the anti-yellowing ability of the raw material is too poor, and the suggestion for the raw material with poor anti-yellowing property is to change the material directly. Summary: Although silicone products have excellent weather resistance and aging resistance. But sometimes there is still just out of the silicone products yellow. In order to avoid this situation, according to the requirements of the choice of vulcanizing agent, the process should strictly control the temperature of the mold and the vulcanization time of the product, raw materials should pay attention to the selection of special anti yellowing raw materials.

Custom silicone products need to know what precautions
Mingzhen Silicone Products FactoryIs a large silicone products production enterprises, professional for customers to open mold production of all kinds of silicone products, silicone bag rubber products, silicone molds and so on. Recently, we have also received many online customer inquiries about prices. Some customers have incomplete drawings or unclear technical requirements, or only one photo, let us quote a price. In view of these problems, our business personnel need to explain patiently to customers.
For curved surface products, it is necessary to have a 3D map to see the product clearly. At the same time, it is also necessary to provide relevant process requirements, material requirements, surface requirements of silicone products, etc. For example, are there any special requirements for the material of silicone products? Does the surface need printing or other process requirements? Whether the product needs spraying and so on. Only clear these technical requirements, we can accurately report a suitable price, so that the price is also a responsible attitude to customers.
After the price is confirmed, it takes 7 days for the silicone sample mold to be opened to the first batch of samples, and about 10 days for the production mold to be opened to the sample delivery. The sample mold mentioned here refers to the time when the customer's silica gel product size structure is still in the development stage and is not very accurate. In order to reduce the customer's unnecessary mold repair cost and loss, we usually open the sample mold first to conduct the sample, which will be very convenient for the later modification of the silica gel product size structure, and then open the production mold after the customer has confirmed the structure size and technical requirements of the silica gel product, this saves development costs and time. If you encounter any questions in the process of customizing silicone rubber products, you can contact the service personnel of Mingzhen silicone products factory at any time. We will provide you with the most worry-free, trouble-free and direct customized service!
