Silicone oil has many special properties, such as small temperature-viscosity coefficient, high and low temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, high flash point, low volatility, good insulation, low surface tension, non-corrosive to metal, non-toxic and so on. Due to these characteristics, silicone oil is used in many applications with excellent results. In a variety of silicone oil, to methyl silicone oil is the most widely used, is the most important varieties of silicone oil, followed by methyl phenyl silicone oil. Various functional silicone oils and modified silicone oils are mainly used for special purposes.
There are many kinds of silicone oil, and silicone oil has a wide range of applications. It is not only used as a special material in aviation, cutting-edge technology, military technology sector, but also used in all sectors of the national economy, its application has been expanded to: construction, electrical and electronic, textile, automotive, machinery, leather and paper, chemical and light industry, metal and paint, medicine and health care and so on.
The main applications of silicone oil and its derivatives are: defoamer, shock absorbing oil, dielectric oil, hydraulic oil, heat transfer oil, diffusion pump oil, defoamer, lubricant, hydrophobicity, paint additives, polishing agents, cosmetics and daily necessities additives, surfactants, particles and fibers treatment agents, silicone grease, flocculants. Silicone rubber is divided into room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber and high temperature vulcanized silicone rubber. The former is mainly used in sealants, adhesives, conformal coatings, gaskets, foam rubber, molded parts, encapsulation materials, electrical insulation, glass assembly, medical implants, surgical aids, and mold making materials. The latter are mainly used in pipes and hoses, strips, wire and cable insulation, surgical aids, flame-retardant rubber parts, penetrating seals, molded parts, embossing rollers, automotive ignition cables and spark plug covers, extruded parts, medical implants, laminates, conductive rubbers, fiber coatings, foam rubbers.
The main applications for silicone resins are: varnishes, insulating paints, molding compounds, protective coatings, encapsulants, joint coatings, pressure sensitive adhesives, laminating resins, release agents, adhesives, masonry water repellents.
Silane coupling agents are mainly used in paints, plastic and rubber processing, and adhesives. Silicone can not only be used as a basic material, structural materials in a number of large industries in a large number of applications, but also can be used as a supplement or auxiliary materials and other materials to share or improve the process performance of other materials.
