LSR (Liquid Silicone Rubber)

LSR, liquid silicone rubber, is Liquid Type and High Temperature Vulcanization Silicone Rubber. HRS LSR is the perfect rubber material for automated injection molding due to its excellent liquidity. Also, LSR is ideal for complex molds, demanding design and tolerance because it can easily fill the most complex part of a mold. LSR does not generate volatiles or residues during the curing process and it makes it possible to be used in products that require inertness (ex. pacifier, diving maske, medical tubes, snorkel, and bakeware). www.hrssilicone.com

Is it easier to mold silicone than plastic?

Question by Ray: Is it easier to mold silicone than plastic?
Let’s say I want to produce a certain small part, will it be easier to do it with silicone than plastic? I don’t mean do it yourself at home, I mean producing it at a quantity of few thousands. So therefore I need a mold.

To make such a mold for silicone part should be cheaper and simpler than an injection mold for plastic is it? You don’t have to worry about temperature…

I don’t know, how does the industry make silicone parts?

Answer by mike
Its difficult to answer without knowing anything about your part. They are equally easy to make, the cost may very depending on the complexity of the object. it will also matter what the material your object is made out of what you are making the mold for, and also what material you are making the mold out of. Plastic and silicone cast be made from a lot of different methods, like injection, slush cast and others. An injection mold may work great for something like a garbage can, but if you are making a sculpture of a human head, silicone will provide better results but in that case would be more expensive for that kind of application. There really are too many variables without having any idea what you are making
