Crystal Clear Silicone

Crystal clear silicone is also known as high transparent silicone , transparent LSR,  plastinum cure clear  silicone, best crystal clear silicone, high temperature clear silicone, high heat clear silicone, clear high temp silicone, clear high heat silicone, heat proof clear silicone, crystal clear silicone rubber, high temp clear silicone . It is a high-performance speciality elastomer. Under long-term heat exposure, it maintain crystal clear and superior thermal stability with no loss in mechanical performance. In addition, it is highly resistant to yellowing and cracking.

What is Crystal Clear Silicone


Crystal clear silicone is also known as high transparent silicone , transparent LSR,  plastinum cure clear  silicone, best crystal clear silicone, high temperature clear silicone, high heat clear silicone, clear high temp silicone, clear high heat silicone, heat proof clear silicone, crystal clear silicone rubber, high temp clear silicone . It is a high-performance speciality elastomer. Under long-term heat exposure, it maintain crystal clear and superior thermal stability with no loss in mechanical performance. In addition, it is highly resistant to yellowing and cracking.

Clear silicone focuses on transparency, but crystal clear silicone focuses on both transparency and heat resistance.


Crystal Clear Silicone Vs Optical Clear Silicone

Feature Crystal Clear Silicone Optical Clear Silicone
Raw Material Type High-performance industrial grade, may add special formulations Dedicated optical silcone raw materials,add special formulations
Light Transmittance Relatively high, about 85-90% ≥94% (extremely high)
Haze Relatively low, about <3%-5% < 1%
Yellowness Good, not easy to yellowing under high heat Extremely low, with strict post-aging yellowness requirements for UV and blue light stability
Contamination Control Industrial-grade clean environment, allows for tiny impurities Ultra-clean environment, stringent requirements for particles, bubbles, and extractables
Applicationn Automotive interior optical parts, sensor windows, oral care silicone parts, pacifier components, heat resistant appliance parts
Precision optics:LED/laser packaging, fiber optic couplers, AR/VR waveguides, precision imaging lenses
Cost Medium to high Very high

In a word, high transparent silicone will keep transparent without yellowing in heat exposure condition. Clear high temp silicone is rather suitable for those applications where light needs to pass through, but optical quality requirements are low.


Suitable Molding Process

Generally speaking high transparent silicone is also belong to liquid silicone rubber (LSR ). It mainly produced by liquid silicone rubber injection molding. Clear high heat silicone is mainly produced through low-temperature vulcanization, which maintain clarity and reduces thermal stress on components. RTV casting moulding and compressed molding are not suitable for manufacturing crystal clear silicone rubber.

Main Defects for Crystal Clear Silicone    


High clear silicone material will show the defects of black spots, bubbles and surface contamination more easily. Besides insufficient filling and air trapping will be the main common defects in manufacturing process. It may cause defects such as incomplete edges, trapped air marks, weld lines,milky products, etc.

How We Control the Defects 

  • First, it is very important to carry out incoming material inspection.

  • Second, mold cleanliness checking is also a must.

  • Third, process parameter control will affect the quality of the whole batch.

  • Fourth, our engineers will optimize venting and gate design to reduce air entrapment problem and flow marks during mold design. Venting design is very crucial for best crystal clear silicone. Transparent LSR requires a better mold surface so as to achieve high-transparency products. Therefore, higher-grade steel and electroplating effect are requested for mold making, and these will affect the product appearance.  In this case, S316 ,P20 and S718 steel are more suitable for the mold material due to their good mirror polish-ability and steel cleanliness.

  • Fifth, stricter visual inspection will be required for the  heat proof clear silicone parts.

  • Sixth, good protective packaging for platinum cure clear silicone will directly affect the cleanliness and overall perfection of the finished product.
