How are colorful silicone products colored?

Whether they are silicone products or hardware and plastic products, these industrially manufactured products are all colored. There are various colors in silicone products. Many people do not understand how the colors of silicone products are colored and how to make the various colors of silicone products These colors complement each other well. How are these colors achieved?

From the beginning of the design of silicone products, silicone products are inseparable from the matching of various colors. Whether they are silicone cup lids, silicone keychains,
Silicone Zero Wallet dolls and other silicone products, they are inseparable from the coloring process. Unless the transparent color of the Silicone Product Toys itself is required. But there are very few of them. The color of silica gel itself is transparent and white. Modulating color is a very professional issue and a very technical job. In color science, mixing different colors to obtain another color is called a change in hue. Only by mastering the change in hue can the target color be modulated more quickly. To create a target color, you must first prepare color masterbatch of different colors, extract a certain proportion of color masterbatch from various color masterbatch, put it into the silica gel that needs to be refined, and rub and roll it through the rubber mixing machine. In this process, the main thing is to mix the color masterbatch and silica gel evenly to get the target color we want. But sometimes things don't go as we expected. The target color won't be achieved in one go. Many changes will happen during the rubber mixing process.
For example, if the silicone product is close to the target color or thicker than the target color, it is not the effect we want. Such problems are not a problem for our master craftsmen. When the expected color appears, our masters have previous foresight. According to the predicted color appearance, what color should be added to such mud glue. Return another color. But there is another key issue here which is to give priority to the type of masterbatch. If you can put as little masterbatch of other colors as possible, put as little as possible. This is also the most critical link in the industry and in color science.
After the target color of the silicone product is prepared, the silica gel raw materials need to be put in according to the proportion and the silica gel is mixed, so that the silica gel raw materials and color are evenly mixed. Next, the evenly refined silica gel raw materials are put into the vulcanization machine at high temperature. After molding, the silicone product will be cooled and demoulded after a few minutes. During the high temperature molding process, the general color will not change.
