In the fields of printing and material processing, finding a base material with strong compatibility and stable performance can make subsequent production twice as effective with half the effort. Today, the emergence of the **GF(D,E)9730 and 9730-50 series ink-type liquid silicone rubbers** has become a "capable assistant" for many industries, bringing more possibilities to printing and processing with their excellent characteristics.
In terms of basic properties, both products are transparent liquid silicone rubbers. When held in hand, their internal state can be clearly seen, eliminating worries about impurities affecting usage. Both have a density of 1.11g/cm³; compared with common liquid materials, they have a uniform and stable texture, maintaining good condition whether in storage or during preparation. More importantly, they comply with two major international standards: **US FDA** and **EU RoHS**. This means the products have undergone strict inspections for safety and environmental friendliness, making them reliable for use in food-contact packaging printing as well as surface treatment of daily necessities.
In terms of performance, these two products are full of highlights. Both have a Shore A hardness of 30—this hardness is neither too high (which would cause the printed layer to crack easily) nor too low (which would lead to pattern deformation), perfectly meeting the printing needs of various substrates. With parameters of tensile strength ≥3.0MPa and elongation at break ≥400%, the cured ink coating possesses excellent toughness: even if the substrate bends slightly, the coating will not break easily. The tear strength ≥10.0kN/m further greatly enhances the coating’s durability, making it hard to be damaged by daily friction or impact.
What is most surprising is its flexibility. If the original viscosity is not suitable for the current process, you only need to add an appropriate amount of solvent to adjust the viscosity as needed. It can be easily adapted to fine screen printing, precise pad printing, or large-area spraying. Moreover, achieving rich colors for printed patterns is simple—adding color masters of different hues allows you to mix the desired color tones, meeting diverse design requirements. For enterprises that need mass production and pursue personalized printing effects, this liquid silicone rubber is undoubtedly an excellent choice to improve efficiency and quality.
