Mold Release

Enhance diverse molded part production with high-quality silicone-based release agents

Momentive’s silicone-based mold release agents are designed to deliver enhanced molding efficiency, faster cycle times, and consistent, high-quality results across a wide range of materials, including thermoplastics, thermosets, rubber, and composites. By improving mold separation, they help minimize downtime and speed up cycle times, supporting a faster, more reliable production.

These advanced products offer excellent release performance, superior mold coverage, and minimal residue, even on complex shapes: our Indusil™ silicone release agents are engineered for durability and precision, enabling multiple releases per application while maintaining mold cleanliness.

We provide a comprehensive selection of heat-stable, solvent-free, and water-based systems that not only ensure outstanding release, wetting, and spreading characteristics, but also help reduce environmental impact.

To meet today’s rigorous production standards, our high-purity, sustainable, and regulatory-compliant solutions can be tailored to your specific needs. Consult with our experts to find the ideal release agent for your manufacturing process.
