The Ultimate Water-Based Silicone Rubber Release Agent

Product Description

Lubekote 9700S is an advanced, water-based release agent system engineered specifically for challenging rubber molding operations. While exceptionally effective as a silicone rubber release agent, its superior formula is also designed for a wide range of elastomers, including Natural Rubber, EPDM, Acrylic Ester, Vinyl Acrylate rubber, and notoriously difficult-to-release compounds like Fluororubber (FKM) and Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (HNBR). This ready-to-use emulsion creates an incredibly durable, semi-permanent film on the mold surface that facilitates numerous release cycles before a reapplication is needed. As a non-contaminating agent, it ensures your finished seals, gaskets, and rubber components maintain their critical surface integrity and are ready for secondary operations like bonding or painting.

Key Features & Advantages

Choosing Lubekote 9700S provides significant benefits for your production line and bottom line:

• Premium Silicone Rubber Release Formula: Specifically formulated to handle high-temperature, sticky polymers like silicone and fluororubber, ensuring clean and consistent demolding.

• Water-Based & VOC-Free: An environmentally friendlier choice that improves workplace safety by eliminating harmful solvents and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

• Excellent Multiple Releases: One thin application provides numerous mold release cycles, drastically reducing downtime and increasing productivity.

• Ultra-Low Transfer: Minimizes residue build-up on the molded part, preventing contamination and ensuring part quality. This is critical for parts requiring post-molding adhesion.

• Eliminates Knit Lines: Promotes better material flow within the mold cavity, resulting in stronger, more visually perfect parts without unsightly or weak knit lines.

• Easy to Apply: Ready-to-use straight from the container. Can be easily applied via spray or wipe for a consistent, thin coating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Is Lubekote 9700S truly ready to use?
A: Yes, it is formulated to be used directly without dilution. For specific application methods, it can be diluted with deionized water.

Q: How do I apply Lubekote 9700S for the best results?
A: Ensure the mold is clean and cool. Shake or stir the product well. Apply a very thin, even coat to the mold surface via a spray or cloth. Allow the water carrier to fully evaporate (leaving the active release film) before commencing production.

Q: Why is it a good silicone rubber release agent?
A: Its advanced formula creates a durable, heat-resistant barrier that prevents sticky silicone and other rubber compounds from adhering to the mold tooling, even after multiple cycles.

Q: What is the shelf life, and how should I store it?
A: The shelf life is 12 months. Store in a cool, dry place and do not allow the product to freeze, as this can compromise its emulsion.

Q: Is this product safe to use?
A: It is a water-based, non-flammable product. As with all industrial chemicals, avoid prolonged skin contact and eye splash. Wear appropriate PPE and refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full handling instructions.
