Rotational Molding Release Agent | ReleaSys™ RM

Design for the Toughest Rotational Molding Applications; Exceptional Longevity, Ease of Release, and Surface Quality

Miller-Stephenson’s ReleaSys™ RM Rotational molding release agent combines over 50 years of release agent expertise and rotational molding experience. Rotational Molding is a dynamic industry which utilizes a variety of  thermoplastic resins. In response to this evolution, Miller-Stephenson has developed the ReleaSys™ RM. The RM release coating is tailored to meet rotational molding efficiency challenges such as shorter, hotter cycles, tighter tolerances, and complex molds. ReleaSys RM is heat stable to 700°F, cures rapidly (even at room temperature), and transfers no mold release to the part.  These exceptional performance characteristics are to a proprietary formulation which tenaciously binds to the mold surface, providing a high release, abrasion resistance coating. The low surface energy of the coating, enhances flow of the melting resin, minimizing surface defects and decreasing cycle times.

Benefits of ReleaSys™ RM Rotational Molding Release Agent

  • Multiple releases from a single application
  • High Temperature Stability ( >600° F)
  • No Transfer or Pre-Release Issues
  • Lower Scrap and Improved Release Ease
  • Reduced Pigment Build up; Better Cosmetics
  • Enhanced Resin Flow Out
  • Increased Productivity through reduced downtime
  • No VOC, No Odor; Water based formulation

Applications of ReleaSys RM Rotational Molding Release Agent

ReleaSys™ RM rotational molding release products should be applied via any method which delivery fine atomization or via a microfiber cloth.  Ideally the mold surface would be between 20°C (68°F) and 205°C (400°F). Spray application is recommended, although brushing or wiping may also be used. Optimum multiple release performance is obtained by applying to molds preheated above 60°C (140°F). The ease of release, number of releases/application and surface finish will depend on application technique, mold temperature and number of coats applied. ReleaSys RM has been optimized for use on the following plastics:

  • LLDPE, LDPE, MDPE, HDPE, XLPE,
  • Polypropylene (PP)
  • Nylon / Polyamide
  • Polycarbonate
  • Fluoropolymer Resin

Miller-Stephenson can customize a ROTOMOLDING release agent for your specific needs

Miller-Stephenson prides itself on having a robust and dynamic R&D facility which can efficiently and quickly develop a customize formula for your specific rotational molding operation. We typically find this is necessary if a mold has particularly challenging undercuts, scuppers, bolts, pins or drafts. Our team will find an immediate solution to your unique challenges and delivery a rotational molding release agent to meet not only your performance requirements, but your cost requirements as well.

ReleaSys™ RM – Designed for to work where other release coating fail

Producing a high quality, dimensionally controlled rotomolded part would be easy if all parts were the same shape and size, but they are not. For example, a fuel cell for a marine application usually needs to be molded in a shape that will allow it to fit into a very irregular and tight space envelope. A Silo style storage tank, on the other hand, is a large and regular in shape. The demands placed on the release agent for these two applications are very different. The marine gas tank will usually require a release agent that provides excellent resin flow & maximum release assistance.  The large water tank requires similar flow assistance but a modified slip level to prevent pre-release. Thanks to Miller-Stephenson’s extensive expertise in the rotomolding industry we understand the problems rotomolders experience and have developed specialized rotational molding release agents to meet these specific requirements.
