What is the difference between water-based release agent and water-based isolating agent?

For friends in the industry, it is very easy to distinguish between water-based release agents and water-based isolators, but for laymen, there is a greater chance of confusion between the two. Today, the editor will introduce to you how to distinguish between water-based release agent and water-based isolating agent.

Mold release agent is a kind of functional material between mold and finished product. The waterborne release agent has good chemical resistance and will not be dissolved when it comes into contact with the chemical composition of different resins. The release agent also has heat resistance and stress properties, which is not easy to wear or decompose; it is very rare for the release agent to be applied to the mold and transferred to the processed parts, which does not hinder the operation of spray painting or other secondary processing. Due to the rapid development of molding, SMC, injection molding and other processes, the amount of release agent is also greatly increased. With the increasing awareness of environmental protection, the environmental protection industry has also made unprecedented development, all kinds of water-based release agents have also become a popular pronoun nowadays. The principle of release agent is to isolate the effect of demoulding, which is widely used in the demoulding of carbon fiber products or fiberglass products.

In fact, the water-based isolating agent can also be called "release agent". The only thing that needs to be distinguished is that the isolating agent forms an isolation layer between the mold and the cementitious material to play a demoulding effect, and the simple understanding is the additive that plays the role of isolation. The specific meaning is different in different fields, such as the film isolating agent in rubber processing, which is a kind of operational auxiliaries, and its main function is to prevent the film surface from sticking to each other. It is widely used in the molding, mixing, pressing and molding of raw rubber and rubber materials.
