Mold release agents play an important role in the production of polyurethane shoes and slippers. These release agents allow the molded polyurethane to come out of the mold easily and give the products the desired surface properties. Molds are usually made of aluminum, steel or specially coated metal alloys and the polyurethane material is poured into these molds. Mold release agents form a film when applied to the mold surface, reducing adhesion between the mold and the poured polyurethane material. While solvent- based release agents have been used for a long time, environmental and health restrictions have encouraged the development of water-based release agents. In this article, mold release agents for the slipper sole sector, which have a wide range of applications in polyurethane materials, and their types, water-based glossy sole release agents and Teknik Kimya's solutions in this field will be discussed.
