Dupont 0131762 Mold Release 8 Lb Food Grade Silicone

Product Description

The DUPONT 0131762 is a food-grade, silicone-based mold release agent packaged in an 8-pound can. It applies as a white coating that prevents adhesion between mold surfaces and the materials being formed, reducing drag, tearing, and residue buildup during demolding. The silicone composition provides a wide operating temperature range, rated from -40 degrees F to 400 degrees F, making it suitable for both low-temperature and elevated-heat molding processes. This product is suited for facilities and maintenance professionals working in food processing, industrial manufacturing, or general production environments where mold release performance and food-grade compliance are both required.

The 0131762 is designed for general-purpose mold release applications across a range of industries. Its food-grade certification makes it appropriate for use in food processing and packaging equipment where incidental contact with food products is possible. The silicone formula works on metal, rubber, and plastic mold surfaces commonly found in injection molding, compression molding, and casting operations. Maintenance technicians and production line personnel are the typical installers and applicators of this product.

Installation Notes

Apply only to clean, dry mold surfaces before introducing the molding material. Ensure adequate ventilation in the application area when using aerosol or spray-applied release agents. Review applicable facility safety and food-safety protocols before use in food-grade environments. Follow the manufacturer's application guidance on coverage rate and reapplication intervals to maintain consistent release performance.
