Ethyl silicone oil technology has become a new growth pole for multi-scenario and extreme environmental applications

1.The performance advantages are prominent, with stable operation at a wide temperature range
Ethyl silicone oil, with its unique molecular structure characteristics, demonstrates irreplaceable application value in extreme environments. Its core advantage lies in its ultra-wide temperature adaptability range. The gel point of some models is below -70 ℃, while they can withstand temperatures above 150℃ and maintain stable physical properties within the range of -70 ℃ to 150℃. Chemical inertness makes it non-corrosive to various materials such as metals, plastics and rubbers, and it is fully compatible with mineral oil and synthetic oil. Coupled with excellent dielectric properties and explosion-proof characteristics, it becomes an ideal material for harsh working conditions. These properties enable it to occupy a special position in fields such as industrial lubrication and high-end manufacturing.


2. Industrial scene penetration ensures stable production
In the industrial field, the application of ethyl silicone oil has covered multiple key links. In the hydraulic systems and precision instruments of extremely cold regions, it serves as lubricating oil and cooling fluid, ensuring the continuous operation of equipment in low-temperature environments and solving the problem of traditional oil products solidifying at low temperatures. In the chemical and petrochemical industries, its functions are diversified: as a reinforcing agent for tire core wire fabrics, it can enhance the strength of fibers and the durability of tires; It serves as a mold release agent in molding materials, which can optimize the process and improve the surface quality of the product. It can also be used as a heat transfer agent to work efficiently in the range of 150-250℃, meeting the different requirements of open and closed systems. In pigment manufacturing, it serves as a dust-proof additive to reduce dust pollution while ensuring product uniformity.


3. Expand the application boundaries of daily chemicals and high-end manufacturing
The application scenarios of ethyl silicone oil in the fields of daily chemicals and high-end manufacturing continue to expand. In cosmetic formulas, its colorless, odorless, gentle and skin-friendly characteristics make it an ideal ingredient for products such as face creams and lipsticks. It can not only give a silky texture but also enhance product stability. In the aerospace and automotive industries, it serves as the base material for shock-absorbing fluids and liquid greases, providing stable shock absorption and thermal management support for precision components, and meeting the strict reliability requirements of high-end equipment. In the manufacturing of rubber products, it can be used as a plasticizer to improve the flexibility of the products, and in glass fiber reinforced plastics, it can play the role of a modifier to enhance the comprehensive performance of the materials.


4. Technological iteration accelerates the green upgrade
Technological innovation is driving ethyl silicone oil towards high performance and environmental friendliness. At present, the industry's research and development focus is on low-volatility and high-purity products. Through technological innovations such as solvent-free processes, the organic solvent residue in products has been reduced from 1000 PPM to below 10ppm. The development of green synthesis processes has become a key focus. With the support of green electricity policies, technologies such as electrocatalytic silicon-hydrogen addition are expected to achieve cost advantages after 2026, driving the penetration rate of green production capacity to increase from less than 5% to over 25%. Meanwhile, the increase in customized research and development for different scenarios, as well as technological breakthroughs such as ultra-wide viscosity adjustment and special function modification, are further opening up the application space of ethyl silicone oil.
