Dimethyl Silicone Fluid

ELKAY Chemicals offers a wide range of dimethyl silicone fluid in various viscosity that have a combination of properties that give superior performance in a wide variety of applications. Dimethyl silicone fluid (LK-SIL 100T) is industrial grade silicone fluid. It is clear, low characteristic odor, Dimethyl polysiloxane fluids. The actual viscosity is controlled within +/-5 of the desired viscosity. These fluids are manufactured in the viscosity range from 20 cps to 100k cps. In chemical structure dimethyl silicone fluids are quite different from other fluids having a backbone of silicone-oxygen linkage. The advantage of this is a linkage much stronger than a typical carbon-carbon chain and is more resistant to attack by temperature extremes, oxidation, shear stresses and chemicals than other similar organic fluids and also show good dielectric properties. Dimethyl silicone fluid (LK-SIL 100T) is soluble in hydrocarbon solvents, chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents and low molecular weight aromatic solvents. They have limited solubility in alcohols, ethers, acetone and glycols(depending on viscosity) Dimethyl silicone fluid have numerous applications in almost every industry - 1) Polishes (High gloss for automobile and furniture) 2) Release Agent (Plastic/Rubber/Non-ferrous die casting) 3) Liquid Springs and Shock Absorbers 4) Heat Transfer 5) Power Transmission 6) Rust Prevention 7) Hydraulic Fluids 8) Dielectric Fluids 9) Damping 10)Water Repellency for aerated cement slabs/bricks 11)Paint and Coating additives. 12)Lubricants 13)Textile Finishing 14)Spinneret Cleaner
