Sacrificial Mold Release Agents are referred to as “conventional” mold release agents since they were the sole type available in the early days of molding operations.
The initial mold releases were paste waxes, and eventually the category expanded to include silicone oils, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and other substances.
It should be noted that paste waxes, such as our Honey Wax and Miracle Gloss products, are still extremely common. In actuality, Honey Wax Liquid cleans the mold while also quickly applying.
Sacrificial coatings are important to understand because, while being applied directly to the mold, they do not adhere to its surface. These release coatings transfer from the mold to the freshly formed component as it is removed.
The Global Sacrificial Mold Release Agents market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
For flow promotion and touch-up in deep draws, narrow sprue holes, threads, and undercuts where semi-permanents may be less effective, Mc Lube’s line of sacrificial (conventional) mold release agents is suitable.
For molds that experience excessive accumulation or for processes that cannot sustain the prolonged cure cycles of semi-permanent coatings, our sacrificial coatings may also be the best option.
When diluted, Mc Lube sacrificial mold release agents have apply-every-cycle release properties or multiple releases per application in greater concentrates.
The portfolio of sacrificial mold release agents from Mc Lube comprises silicone-free, solvent-based, and water-based formulations.
