Release agent silicone oil is a high-performance lubricant specifically designed to facilitate easy separation between molds and cast materials. Ideal for industrial, artistic, and manufacturing applications, this silicone-based release agent ensures smooth demolding while preserving the integrity of both the mold and the finished product. Its non-reactive properties make it suitable for use with various materials, including polyurethane, epoxy, rubber, concrete, and wax.
Forms a thin, uniform barrier between the mold and casting material
Prevents adhesion and sticking, ensuring clean releases
Reduces surface defects such as tearing or deformation
Maintains effectiveness in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 260°C (-40°F to 500°F)
Ideal for high-heat applications such as resin casting, metal die-casting, and vulcanized rubber molding
Does not interact with most casting materials (plastics, rubbers, metals, concrete)
Prevents chemical bonding between mold and cast object
Safe for use with silicone molds without causing degradation
Requires minimal reapplication due to excellent film retention
Extends mold lifespan by reducing wear and tear
Can be applied via spray, brush, or wipe-on techniques
Available in different viscosities (low to high) for various mold types
Polyurethane & Epoxy Casting – Ensures bubble-free releases
Rubber & Latex Molding – Prevents tearing during demolding
Concrete & Gypsum Casting – Facilitates clean separation from forms
Resin Art & Jewelry Making – Maintains fine details in intricate molds
Wax & Soap Molding – Allows easy removal without residue
Composite Material Layup – Prevents bonding in carbon fiber and fiberglass molding
Metal Die-Casting – Reduces friction and prolongs tool life

✔ Non-Toxic & Safe – No harmful fumes or skin irritants
✔ Economical – Thin-film application reduces consumption
✔ Compatible with Most Molds – Works on silicone, metal, plastic, and wood
✔ Enhances Mold Longevity – Reduces cleaning and maintenance
Clean the Mold – Ensure it is free of dust and debris.
Apply Evenly – Use a spray, brush, or cloth for a thin, uniform coat.
Allow to Dry (if solvent-based) – Let it flash off before pouring material.
Demold Easily – Once cured, the casting releases effortlessly.
Our silicone oil release agent is an essential tool for mold-makers, foundries, and manufacturers seeking flawless demolding without residue or damage. Its high-temperature resistance, chemical stability, and ease of application make it the preferred choice for professionals across industries.
