Fluorosilicone oil: Innovation-driven, multi-application to stimulate the new vitality of the industry
Recently, the field of fluorosilicone oil has continued to make efforts, and remarkable progress has been made in technological innovation and application expansion, which has injected new impetus into the upgrading and development of many industries.
1. Fruitful achievements in technological innovation
According to the information released by the State Intellectual Property Office, a number of enterprises have made major breakthroughs in the research and development of fluorosilicone oil technology. The patent of "a polyvinyl perfluoropolyether fluorosilicone oil and its preparation method" applied by Jiangxi Huahao Chemical Co., Ltd. has attracted much attention. The patent uses a unique process to prepare polyvinyl polysiloxane through the ring-opening reaction of tetramethyltetravinylcyclotetrasiloxane and cyclosiloxane, and then react with perfluoropolyether trimethoxysilane to produce polyvinyl perfluoropolyether fluorosilicone oil. The modified catalyst used in the preparation process has high reactivity, avoids the problem of impurity removal of various catalysts, and reduces the use of fluorine-containing solvents. The resulting product contains more vinyl functional groups, has a high degree of crosslinking and has excellent corrosion resistance.
2. Medical application upgrade
In the field of medical equipment, Baoxing Medical fluorosilicone oil stands out with its excellent performance. Medical equipment daily need to undergo high-temperature sterilization treatment above 121℃, traditional lubricants are easy to decompose and fail in such a high temperature environment, and Baoxing medical fluorosilicone oil temperature range can reach -50 ℃~260℃, can still maintain stable lubrication performance at high temperature, no precipitation, no carbonization, effectively prevent equipment stuck and secondary pollution. Its ultra-low friction coefficient and stable molecular structure increase the lubrication life by more than 3 times, greatly reduce the maintenance frequency of equipment, and reduce the operating costs of hospitals. In addition, the product has passed the ISO 10993 biocompatibility test, non-toxic, non-allergenic, non-cytotoxic, in line with FDA, NSF food grade certification standards, has been widely used in surgical instruments, imaging equipment, dental tools, etc., to provide a strong guarantee for the efficient and safe operation of medical equipment.
3. Expand multiple application scenarios
The application field of fluorinated silicone oil is constantly expanding. In the industrial field, it can be used as a vacuum pump oil for the treatment of chemical reaction gases, but also for the lubrication of bearings in extremely low and high temperature environments, because it is chemically inert to fuels and other chemicals, and can be used in steam power circulation systems. In the treatment of fabrics and leather, fluorinated silicone oil is often used for waterproof and anti-fouling finishing, giving products oil and solvent repellent. For example, fluorosilicone oil containing heptafluoroisopropoxy-propyl (or ethyl) side chain, the unique T-shaped fluorine-containing structure makes it significantly improve the water and oil repellent and anti-fouling properties of fabrics when used for fabric finishing. In the field of coatings, fluorine-containing silicone oil coatings have high temperature resistance, hydrophobic, oil repellent, solvent resistance, weather resistance and other properties, which can be used in antifouling coatings for Marine ships, protective coatings for solar installations in desert areas, and lubrication and protective coatings for magnetic recording media.
With the continuous emergence of innovative achievements and expanding application fields, fluorine-containing silicone oil plays an increasingly important role in various industries, and is expected to continue to promote the innovation and development of related industries in the future, bringing more surprises to the market.
