Methyl silicone oil properties and uses
Performance and use:
Methyl silicone oil has excellent high and low temperature resistance, and the practical temperature range can reach -60 ~ +180 ℃. It has high lightning, low volatility, low temperature viscosity and low surface tension. Silicone oil also has excellent electrical insulating properties and hydrophobicity and moisture resistance, and it also has good physiological inertia.
Silicone oil can be used as defoaming agent, mold release agent, and can also be used in textile, electronic and electrical, cosmetics, medicine, varnish, paint and glazing wax.
Silicone oil is widely used as defoamer in petroleum, chemical, printing and dyeing, papermaking, food, medicine and other industrial sectors. Silicone oil defoamer has less dosage, high efficiency and non-toxicity. In the petroleum industry, silicone oil defoamers are widely used for control or defoaming in devices such as natural gas desulfurization, deceleration refining, oil and gas separation, glycol drying, aromatic hydrocarbon extraction, asphalt processing, and lubricating oil dewaxing.
Silicone oil can be used as a release agent, it has low surface tension and is easy to form a very thin film on the mold. It has little compatibility with most polymers, resulting in good release properties. Silicone oil has good heat resistance, so the service life of the release agent is long and the pollution to the mold can be reduced. Even carbonization at high temperature does not produce smoke or any gas, so silicone oil is often an ideal mold release agent. In addition to being widely used in rubber products and various plastic molding processes, it is also widely used in food, metal casting, metal welding, glass products, printing and other industries. Since silicone oil is non-toxic, it can directly contact food and can be used as a release agent for food baking molds.
High-viscosity silicone oil can also be directly added to plastics as processing aids and internal mold release agents, which can improve the mold release properties of plastics, improve production efficiency, and reduce the wear and tear of tools, molds, and equipment. Silicone oil can also be directly added to silicone rubber to make copier fixing rollers and so on. Cosmetics: In skin care and hair care products, methyl silicone oil has been widely used as an active ingredient to increase lubrication and skin care, improve gloss and improve moisturizing.
Medicine: Silicone oil can be used to treat medicine bottles, and all the liquid medicine in the bottle can be extracted quantitatively. It can be used to treat the outer surface of the tablets and capsules, which can improve the moisture resistance of the tablets and capsules. Silicone oil can also be used for defoaming of gastric contents before gastroscopy.
Textile: Silicone oil has been widely used as textile printing and dyeing auxiliaries. Silicone oil emulsion can be used as a finishing agent for synthetic fiber fabrics to improve the waterproofness and softness of the fabric, and also make the fabric feel plump, wrinkle-resistant, and more durable in nature. Silicone oil is also widely used in yarn lubrication to reduce high-speed The heating of the needle during sewing reduces the high-speed sewing operation and reduces thread breakage.
Electronic and electrical: Silicone oil has excellent electrical properties, good insulation properties, and lower dielectric loss. It is especially suitable for insulating oil for power transformers to improve the reliability of transformers.
Other industries: In the automotive industry and aviation industry, silicone oil is also used as hydraulic oil, shock absorption oil, brake oil, etc., and in some high-temperature occasions, silicone oil is also used as heat transfer oil.
In short, the application of silicone oil is very wide and the prospect is very broad, especially in my country, the application of silicone oil in various fields has just started, and it is waiting for us to cooperate with the majority of users to develop.
Instructions for use: Silicone oils of different viscosities can be mixed with each other. Since the lightning of low-viscosity silicone oil is lower, the lightning of the blended silicone oil may be reduced. The chemical properties of silicone oil are relatively stable, but when it comes into contact with strong acid, strong alkali or metal aluminum, tin, etc. at high temperature, the viscosity will change and the lightning will decrease. Packaging, storage and transportation: Various types of silicone oils are available in 5kg, 10kg, 25kg or 200kg barrels. This product can be stored in a general indoor warehouse without special storage conditions, and the storage period is 3 years. It can be stored and transported as non-products.
