Silicone Oil
Silicone Oil is a synthetic polymer-based fluid commonly composed of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), with the chemical formula (C₂H₆OSi)ₙ. It is a clear, colourless liquid known for its thermal stability, low surface tension, water-repellent properties, and chemical resistance. It is widely used in laboratory applications, scientific research, lubrication, heat transfer, and various industrial processes.
Product Specifications
Silicone Oil is a synthetic polymeric fluid commonly based on polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), with the repeating unit formula (C₂H₆OSi)ₙ. It is typically supplied as a clear, colourless liquid and is available in different viscosity grades depending on its intended application. Silicone Oil is characterised by its thermal stability, low surface tension, water-repellent properties, and resistance to oxidation under normal operating conditions.
Silicone Oil is valued for its lubricating, insulating, and heat-transfer properties. Common laboratory applications include use in heating baths, temperature-controlled equipment, vacuum systems, laboratory instrument maintenance, and specialised experimental setups. It is also used as a heat-transfer medium, lubricant, release agent, dielectric fluid, and component in various industrial and chemical formulations.
Its stable physical properties and wide viscosity range make Silicone Oil useful in laboratory research, equipment maintenance, material science, and general industrial applications. The appropriate viscosity grade, purity, and formulation should be selected according to the requirements of the intended application.
KSFE Malaysia supplies laboratory chemicals and scientific products for research institutions, educational facilities, and general laboratory applications.
Safety Note: Silicone Oil is generally considered to have low toxicity under normal handling conditions. However, prolonged or repeated contact may cause skin irritation in some individuals. Avoid contact with the eyes and prevent unnecessary skin exposure. Spilled Silicone Oil may create slippery surfaces and should be cleaned promptly. Handle it using appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety goggles and protective gloves. Avoid excessive heating and follow the supplier's safety data sheet (SDS) for recommended handling, storage, and disposal procedures.
