Do you want to make a silicone or alginate mold yourself? This is of course possible with the products and the help of Siliconesandmore!
Here you will find many videos and tutorials on how to easily make a one-stop alginate mold or how to make a beautiful silicone mold from a candle or soap or whatever you like!
Due to the flexibility and the good resistance to aging due to UV radiation and temperature, molds are often made of silicone. Some silicones can withstand temperatures of up to 380 C° for short periods and are therefore suitable for metals with a low melting point.
For many applications, pourable 2-component silicone that cures at room temperature is sufficient. We really have many varieties of these, so if you can't see the forest for the trees, consult our silicone guide or give us a call!
For additional tensile strength we recommend the use of silicone compounds (silicone pastes) which normally cure at higher temperatures. This is often a little more for the professional user.
Silicone molds are often made by placing the original model in a box and pouring silicone over it. This method is quick and easy, but costs more silicone and often results in a less flexible mold. Larger images, odd shapes and delicate products are often made with a spatula mold. To do this, the silicone is thickened and spread over the statue like butter. The resulting silicone skin must of course retain its shape. A support cap is therefore made of epoxy or acrylic resin, for example.
Molds are used for many things. Be it the production of statues in concrete, cement, polyurethane, polyester, etc. or even making sweets. These molds are often made of silicone because of its flexibility and good resistance to aging by UV and temprature. Some silicone can withstand temperatures of 380 ° C for short periods of time and are therefore suitable for metals with low melting point like some tin compounds.
Silicones come in many different types, from one component silicone sealant to two or more components liquid silicone which harden at room temperature. In industrial applications one often uses silicone compounds which are processed with presses or injection machines at higher temperature.
For many applications, a two component room temeprature hardening silicone will do the trick, but for added strength, we recommend the use of silicone compounds (silicone paste) which usually harden at higher temperatures.
Moulds are often made via the casting process in which the original is placed in a container and silicone is poured over it. With more demanding or bigger models however it is easier to make the silicone paste like and brush it against the model. The silicone skin thus obtained has got a lot of detail but no dimensional stability. For this you would need a support hull made e.g. form epoxy or Acrylic resin.
