    Dimethyl silicone oil has a variety of excellent characteristics, so in industrial and agricultural production departments, national defense industry, scientific research and medical and health departments, have been extremely widely used.It is widely used in electrical insulation, demoulding, defoaming, damping, shockproof, rolling, dustproof, waterproof, high and low wetting and so on.


    1, in the application of mechanical and electrical industry: dimethylsilicone oil is widely used in motors, electrical appliances, electronic instruments as temperature resistance, arc corona resistance, corrosion resistance, moisture-proof, dust-proof dielectric, is also used as a transformer, capacitors, television scanning transformer impregnation agent.In a variety of precision machinery, instruments and meters, used as liquid shockproof, damping material.The damping performance of dimethylsilicone oil is little affected by temperature, and it is mostly used in situations with strong mechanical vibration and large environmental temperature changes. The instruments used are as follows: aircraft, automobile instruments.Used for shock proof, damping, stable instrument reading, can also be used as a liquid spring, and in the landing device of the aircraft.


    2. As release agent: Because this product is not sticky with rubber, plastic, metal, etc., it is also used as release agent for molding processing of all kinds of rubber and plastic products, and for precision casting.Using it as release agent is not only convenient to release, and make the surface of the product clean, smooth, clear texture.


    3, as antifoaming agent: because this product surface tension is small, and insoluble in water, animal and plant oil and high boiling point in the mineral oil, good chemical stability, and non-toxic, used as a defoaming agent has been widely used in petroleum, chemical, medical, pharmaceutical, food processing, textile, printing and dyeing, paper making industries, as long as add 10-100 parts per million of silicone oil has good defoaming agent.


    4 do insulation, dust, mildew coating: in glass, ceramic surface dip coated with a layer of dimethyl silicone oil, and at 250-300℃ after heat treatment, can form a layer of semi-permanent waterproof, mildew and insulation film.Used to deal with insulating devices, can improve the insulation performance of devices: used to deal with optical instruments, can prevent lens, prism mold;With the treatment of medicine bottle, can prolong the storage period of the drug, does not make the preparation due to adhesion and loss;With the treatment of film film surface, can play a lubricating role, reduce friction, prolong the life of the film.1, as a lubricant: This product is suitable for rubber, plastic bearing, gear lubricant.It can also be used as a lubricant for rolling friction between steel and steel at high temperature, or friction between steel and other metals. However, because the lubrication performance of methylsilicone oil is not particularly good at room temperature, it is not recommended as a lubricant between metals at room temperature in general.


    5, as additive, this product can make many material additives, such as whitening agent can be used as paint, add a small amount of silicone oil into the paint, can make the paint film without package, not wrinkle increase the brightness, add a small amount of silicone oil into the ink, can improve the quality of printing, add a small amount of silicone oil to the polishing oils (such as car glazing oil), can increase the brightness, protective film, and has a good waterproof effect.


    6, in medical and health applications:;Dimethylsilicone oil is not toxic to the human body, nor is it decomposed by body fluids, so it is also widely used in medical and health services.Using its antifoaming effect, oral gastrointestinal antidistension tablets and pulmonary edema antifoaming aerosols have been made into medicinal products.Adding silicone oil to the ointment can improve the penetration ability of the drug to the skin and improve the efficacy.Some plasters based on silicone oil have good curative effect on scald, dermatitis, bedsores, etc. The anticoagulant effect of silicone oil can be used to treat the surface of blood storage device and prolong the storage time of blood samples.


    7, other aspects: This product has many uses in other aspects.Such as: the use of its high flash point, odorless, colorless, transparent and non-toxic to the human body and other characteristics, in steel, glass, ceramics and other industries and scientific research, as oil bath or thermostat heat carrier.With its good shear resistance, it can be used as hydraulic oil, especially aviation hydraulic oil.With its treatment of rayon spinning head, can eliminate static electricity, improve the quality of drawing.Adding silicone oil to cosmetics can improve skin moisturization and protection, etc.

 

    Silicone oil has many special properties, such as small temperature viscosity coefficient, high and low temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, high flash point, small volatility, good insulation, small surface tension, no corrosion to metal, non-toxic and so on.Because of these properties, silicone oil has excellent results for applications in many aspects.Among the various silicone oils, methyl silicone oil is the most widely used and is the most important variety in silicone oil, followed by methyl phenyl silicone oil.All kinds of functional silicone oil and modified silicone oil are mainly used for special purposes.


    Properties: colorless, odorless, non-toxic and non-volatile liquid.


    Use: It has a variety of viscosity.High heat resistance, water resistance, electrical insulation and low surface tension.Commonly used as high grade lubricating oil, shockproof oil, insulation oil, defoaming agent, release agent, polish agent, isolating agent and vacuum diffusion pump oil;Emulsion can be used for car tire glazing, instrument panel glazing, etc.Methylsilicone oil is the most commonly used.After emulsification or modification, it is used for the smooth and soft touch finishing of textile finishing. Emulsified silicone oil is also added to the shampoo of daily care products to improve the lubrication of hair.In addition, there are ethyl silicone oil, methyl phenyl silicone oil, nitrile silicone oil, polyether modified silicone oil (water-soluble silicone oil) and so on.
