Conventional Release Agents for Rubber Molding

Conventional Release Agents for Rubber Molding

When semi-permanent release agents are not suitable, we provide conventional mold release products. Our ongoing efforts in product development are particularly directed towards addressing the unique requirements of this segment within the rubber industry. These conventional solutions are designed for molds with intricate cavities or instances where excessive product application to easily accessible areas is not acceptable.

Our Solution - Mono-Coat®

Mono-Coat® Conventional Release Agents for Rubber Molding represent a cornerstone in advancing operational efficiency and extending mold life in the rubber and rotational molding industries. As a leader in the field, Mono-Coat® has consistently revolutionized molding practices. While renowned for its semi-permanent release agents, Mono-Coat® also excels in conventional release agents designed explicitly for rubber molding applications.

These agents are formulated to optimize mold life and enhance operational efficiency by ensuring reliable and clean releases, facilitating the seamless extraction of molded parts. With a focus on versatility, Mono-Coat® Conventional Release Agents are available in various formulations, offering solutions tailored to specific polymer types and mold geometries, catering to diverse slip needs across rubber molding operations.

In addition to facilitating effective releases, Mono-Coat® recognizes the critical challenges in the rubber and rotational molding industries, such as mold corrosion and degradation. To combat these issues and safeguard equipment and production timelines, Mono-Coat® mold protectants provide a proven solution. By extending mold life, these protectants not only mitigate the risks associated with mold corrosion but also contribute to a significant boost in operational efficiency.

Mono-Coat® Conventional Release Agents and Mold Protectants collectively embody a commitment to innovation, offering confidence to rubber molders by ensuring consistent, reliable, and efficient molding operations while promoting longevity and resilience in mold usage.

Common Problems Solved with this Solution

Rubber Chunking

Rubber chunking is a phenomenon where rubber unintentionally sticks to the mold during the extraction process, creating voids in the product and leaving residue in the mold, impacting both the part and the manufacturing process.

In rubber-bonding environments, adhesives release gasses onto the mold surface, leading to rubber adhesion. Chunking occurs when the rubber-to-rubber bond is weaker than the rubber-to-mold surface bond, a situation addressed by the presence of a release agent. Adhesive off-gassing takes place when the adhesive on a substrate turns into a gas in a closed mold. Without rubber in the cavity, the adhesive transfers and bonds to the mold, commonly observed in injection molding or transfer molding.

Chem-Trend’s plunger lubricants play a crucial role in preventing adhesive transfer to the mold, effectively mitigating rubber chunking issues and ensuring a smoother manufacturing process.
