Silicones are polymeric character materials formed by a chain of alternating silicon atoms and oxygen atoms, which constitute good elastomers because the main chain is very flexible.The biocompatibility of silicone is formulated completely with FDA Biocompatibility Guidelines (Food and Drug Administration).Its manufacturing is based on radical addition vulcanizing (HTV) and thanks to their chemical structure are achieved special technical and aesthetic results difficult to obtain with traditional products.Injection molding of liquid silicone has several advantages in the manufacture of silicone, emphasizing the excellent speed and termination of the products, although it emphasizes the great difficulty in the design and machining of molds.
