Fluorosilicone oil's cross-border penetration into consumption and precision manufacturing brings about material innovation
1. Unlock new waterproof and oil-proof solutions in the textile and wearable fields
Fluorosilicone oil modified with fluorine side chains has achieved a performance breakthrough in fabric finishing. The straight-chain structure product, after being applied to cotton fabrics, has a water resistance level of ISO 24920-5, and its oil-repellent performance remains above 90% after 100 washes. The new fluorosilicone synthetic leather, through the compounding of vinyl fluorosilicone oil and conductive carbon paste, has a tensile rate increased to 300%. It has been used in flexible wearable sensors, achieving a dual improvement in skin adhesion and signal transmission efficiency in health monitoring devices. Its unique T-shaped fluorine-containing structure forms a molecular film, which extends the solvent erosion resistance life of leather products to four times that of traditional materials.
2. Precision lubrication technology is adapted to the demands of high-end manufacturing
The fluorosilicone oil specially designed for the watch and micro-mechanical fields has a surface energy as low as 20mN/m and a friction coefficient reduced to 0.015, maintaining stable lubrication even during the high-speed operation of mechanical gears at 300,000 revolutions per minute. After the core components of the laser printer are lubricated with fluorosilicone oil and perfluoropolyether composite lubricant, they can withstand a temperature of 121℃ and work continuously for 12,000 hours without failure, extending the equipment maintenance cycle by 60%. The lubrication characteristics under extreme pressure conditions have led to a 28% increase in its application rate in micro motor bearings compared to last year.
3. Expand the application boundaries in the cosmetics and packaging fields
Low-molecular-weight fluorosilicone oil, with its excellent spreadability and skin feel, has become a core ingredient in high-end makeup primers, which can extend the makeup duration by 4 to 6 hours. In the field of food packaging, fluorosilicone oil-based anti-stick coatings have solved the problem of residue in baking molds. After 200 high-temperature cycles, the peel force of the coating remains below 0.5N/cm, and it has passed the FDA food contact safety certification. After surface treatment, the water absorption rate of the paper drops from 12% to 1.5%, and the weather resistance of the printed matter is improved by three times.
4. Special coatings achieve multi-dimensional performance upgrades
In the application of fluorosilicone oil and nano-silica composite coating on building exterior walls, a superhydrophobic self-cleaning effect with a contact Angle of 118° is achieved, and the stain adhesion rate is reduced by 85%. This coating also has flame-retardant properties. It does not drip at a high temperature of 300℃ and has a service life of over 20 years. After coating the inner wall of the oil transportation pipeline, the fluid resistance is reduced by 22%, and at the same time, the resistance to crude oil corrosion reduces the pipeline maintenance cost by 40%.
