The main market applications of linear silicone oil include: personal protection and cosmetic products, medical and food products, electrical insulating media, transportation equipment and instruments, lubrication, coating additives, etc.Next, Zinca will introduce the specific uses of linear silicone oil in various fields. 

    Silicone oil applications for personal protection and cosmetic products: silicone oil colorless, tasteless, non-irritating products, with chemical stability, hydrophobicity, lubricity and storage stability and commonly used cosmetic components compatibility.In particular, the combination of surface tension, good skin lubrication and moderate viscosity of silicone oil makes the other components of cosmetics easy to disperse and expand into a film on the skin.Lip balm, powder, mascara, eye circle oil, makeup pen, nail polish and blush with silicone oil will not contain too much oil, promote the diffusion and distribution of cosmetic components, and prolong their effective use time.

    Silicone oil applications in medical and food: Linear silicone oil plays an important role in medicine due to its antifoaming, hydrophobicity and anti-viscosity properties.It is mainly used in medical defoaming agent, anti-fogging agent, ointment and protective paste, medicinal additive and as fillers in vitrectomy eyes, etc.Silicone oil can prevent water vapor from fogging on glass, and most anti-fogging agents on the market contain silicone oil components.Such as glass antifogging agent, plastic film antifogging agent, etc.Advantage of the characteristics of silicone oil can prevent mist, in the electronic nose throat mirror front end department on the objective of coated with a thin layer of silicone oil, to form a layer of protective film, check with the patient breath in mirror front end department objective nasal canal, water vapor is spread out, become a thin little quick evaporation a layer of water film and not form a fog, prevent mist effect.

    Silicone oil application of electric insulating medium: the electrical characteristics of linear silicone oil are not better than that of general insulating oil, but its viscosity range is wide, dielectric loss is small, flash point and high ignition point, and it can maintain good dielectric properties in a wide range of temperature and frequency.Silicone oil has good compatibility with other insulating materials, so it is widely used in all kinds of transformers, capacitors, electronic equipment, components and devices, cable parts of insulation cooling, impregnation, lubrication, aid, coating and heat carrier.

    Transportation equipment and instrument of silicone oil application: linear silicone oil of high and low temperature resistance, low temperature, low vapor pressure, shear viscosity coefficient, compressible and non-toxic, tasteless, such as performance, allowing it to in the transportation machinery and instrument industry are widely used as power transmission medium, the working oil, buffer shock absorption oil, brake fluid, fluid coupling, lubrication and polishing, defoaming, and add water etc.

    Linear silicone oil lubrication of silicone oil application: especially in dimethyl silicone oil and methyl phenyl silicone oil shall apply to plastic, phenolic resin, nylon, polycarbonate, gears, bearings, shaft sleeve, and the rubber sealing ring lubrication, applies only to synchronous motor for metal components, precision machinery instruments and meters, porous bronze bearing lubrication oil.

    Silicone oil application of coating additives: Linear silicone oil surface tension is small, and has unique interface properties, in the coating and ink only need to add a very small amount of [0.0001%-0.5%(mass fraction)] low viscosity dimethyl silicone oil, can effectively reduce the surface tension, improve the coating and expansion, no orange peel, uniform appearance of the coating, It can also improve the dispersion of pigments and other additives in the coating and ink, avoid its segregation, floating or precipitation.

    Linear silicone oil in addition to some of the physical properties of dimethyl, its main characteristic is that it has chemical activity, can react with silane containing functional groups, siloxane, organic compounds and inorganic compounds, generate new compounds, thus greatly expanding the application field of silicone oil, and enrich the silica-containing material world.Branched-chain silicone oil is far less important than linear silicone oil in any aspect.So linear silicone oil is worth choosing.
