Artificial stone silicone, also known as silicone rubber, is a type of flexible and durable material commonly used for making molds and casting artificial stone products. Here’s some information about artificial stone silicone:

Material Properties: Artificial stone silicone is typically made from a two-part liquid silicone rubber compound that cures into a solid, flexible, and heat-resistant material. It has excellent mold-making properties, including high elasticity, tear resistance, and dimensional stability.

Mold Making: Silicone rubber is commonly used to create molds for casting artificial stone. It can capture intricate details and reproduce the texture of natural stone effectively. The liquid silicone is poured or brushed onto the original stone or mold prototype to create a flexible mold that can be used for casting multiple replicas.

Casting Artificial Stone: Once the silicone mold is ready, it can be used to cast artificial stone products. A mixture of resin or concrete is poured into the mold and allowed to cure or dry, resulting in a replica of the original stone. The flexibility of the silicone mold allows for easy demolding and removal of the cast artificial stone.

Durability and Longevity: Silicone rubber molds used for casting artificial stone are durable and can withstand repeated use. They are resistant to tearing, stretching, and deformation, providing longevity for creating multiple stone replicas.
