Dimethyl-diphenylpolysiloxane

Description

Silicone oil (dimethyl-diphenylpolysiloxane) is a class of organosilane compounds typically featuring dimethyl and diphenyl groups, forming a distinctive siloxane (Si-O) backbone structure. The coexistence of methyl and phenyl groups significantly enhances their thermal stability, flexibility, and chemical resistance, making them suitable for diverse applications including sealants, adhesives, and coatings. These compounds exhibit low surface tension, conferring excellent wetting properties, and are frequently employed in formulations demanding high-performance characteristics. Furthermore, renowned for their low toxicity and biocompatibility, they are well-suited for medical and cosmetic sectors.

The Uses of Dimethyl-diphenylpolysiloxane

Silicone oil is used in high temperature open systems, closed systems and circulating, closed loop and heat transfer baths. It is used as a high temperature fluid for laboratory research apparatus and instruments. It is also used as a calibration media in temperature controlled baths.

Chemical properties

Dimethyl-diphenylpolysiloxane is a viscous liquid, a solidified melt or a supercooled melt.

Hazard

Low toxicity by ingestion. A mild eye irritant.
