What is the agent release?
Released agent is a chemical, usually a liquid that is used to facilitate easy removal of shaped or castings from molds. These chemicals are applied to the contact surfaces of the mold before casting or forming, preventing excessive adhesion between it and the finished part. This effect is achieved by creating a second surface or layer of barrier between the mold surface and the components that are later removed from the finished product. These agents are usually based on silicone, oil or soap surfaces with several special food formulations used in the food processing industry. Release agents are widely used in various applications that include concrete castings, plastic forming, glass fiber pressing and paper production.
Removing castings or formed parts from their forms may sound like a relatively simple process, but may sometimes present some relatively sticky problems. This is especially true for complex parts thatThey often require a considerable amount of efforts to make yourself from the mold. The use of the Agent Release significantly reduces the amount of time and effort spent on this task simply by providing the other inner surface between the form and the product. In some cases, these other leather or film simply make the contact surface between the mold and the product, and in others it provides a physical film or skin, which does not allow the adhesion of the product at all. Other types of release substances react chemically with the product to prevent adhesion.
Release agents may be liquid solutions applied using a spray gun or brush, wax compounds applied with a cloth or convenient types of aerosol. The active ingredients in the releasing of low viscosity liquids are usually suspended in various solvents, some of which could pose health or environmental risks. This should be in mind at work or liquidationthese products. In addition, as with all solutions, it should be considered that adequate ventilation and fire prevention should be considered.
Although the release agents facilitate removal and castings, they often have a significant effect on the surface texture of the finished product and can prevent the application of post -production surfaces such as dyes and color. The correct selection of the release agent is therefore quite important if the refusal rates are to be kept minimally. This option is quite easy to consider a large range of agents. The fact that the product is often exposed to considerable contamination agents for release should also be remembered where sensitive parts are produced for the pharmaceutical or food industry.
