In the baby product manufacturing industry, it is often difficult to balance the "softness" and "strength" of materials—excessively soft materials tear easily, while overly hard ones cause discomfort. However, the IOTA LSR 3240K series of liquid silicone rubber has successfully achieved this balance, becoming the material of choice for a growing number of brands.
How does it achieve this?
This silicone rubber adopts a "platinum catalysis system," which can be understood as an efficient and clean "curing booster." When heated, it rapidly converts liquid silicone into a soft yet tough solid state, and no harmful by-products are generated during the process—ensuring the final product is pure and odorless.
A plain-language explanation of its key properties:
-
Selectable hardness: Three hardness options (40, 50, 60) are available to meet the tactile requirements of different products;
-
High tensile strength: It is not easy to break even when stretched to more than 5 times its original length;
-
Strong tear resistance: It can withstand repeated biting and squeezing without cracking;
-
Good transparency: The final product is clear and bright, which is aesthetically pleasing and allows easy observation of the internal structure.
-
Production-friendly with improved efficiency:The 3240K series features a two-component 1:1 mixing design, which greatly simplifies the production process. Combined with its fast thermal curing property, it only takes 45 seconds to cure a 2mm-thick product at 150°C—making it highly suitable for high-efficiency, large-batch injection molding production.
-
Wide range of applicable products:The 3240K series is competent for manufacturing various items, from pacifiers and soothers to baby tableware and toy accessories with complex structures, and even medical-grade baby products.
Conclusion:
A high-quality material is the cornerstone of a successful product. With its outstanding comprehensive performance, the 3240K series is becoming synonymous with "soft yet tough" in the field of baby product manufacturing.
