Silicone oil

Product Name: Silicone Oil (Polydimethylsiloxane / PDMS)

Chemical Formula: C₂H₆OSi·(C₂H₆OSi)ₙ (General formula for PDMS)

Key Features: Colorless, odorless, non-toxic liquid. Excellent heat resistance, low temperature fluidity, low surface tension, high dielectric strength, water repellency, and chemical inertness.

Main Applications by Industry:

Daily Chemicals & Personal Care: As key ingredient in shampoos, conditioners, skin lotions, and shaving creams for smoothness, softness, and shine.

Textile Industry: As softening agent, smoothing agent, and water repellent finish for fabrics and fibers.

Industrial Lubrication: As high-temperature oil bath lubricant, release agent for rubber/plastic molding, and anti-friction additive.

Defoaming: As primary component in industrial defoamers for wastewater treatment, fermentation, pulp & paper, and food processing.

Electronics & Electrical: As dielectric fluid, insulating oil, and damping medium for transformers, capacitors, and electronic components.

Automotive & Aerospace: As damping fluid for shock absorbers, lubricant for precision instruments, and protective coating for surfaces.

Construction & Coatings: As additive in paints, varnishes, and waterproofing coatings to improve gloss, leveling, and weather resistance.

Medical & Pharmaceutical: As lubricant for syringes, anti-foaming agent in gastrointestinal medications, and surface treatment for medical devices.

Plastics & Rubber: As internal lubricant and mold release agent to improve processing efficiency and surface quality.

Handling & Safety:
Generally non-irritating and non-sensitizing. Avoid contact with strong oxidizers. Prevent spillage due to slipperiness. Store in sealed containers away from heat sources.
