As a multifunctional additive, silicone oil plays an irreplaceable role in the formulation of polishing agents and surface treatment agents.
Application of silicone oil in polishing agent
Liquidity: Silicone oil gives the polishing agent good liquidity, making it easy to apply evenly.
Hydrophobic film: Silicone oil can form a hydrophobic film on the surface, enhancing gloss and weather resistance.
Application areas: Polishing agents formulated with silicone oil are not only used in automobiles, but also widely used in surface treatment of leather products, furniture, plastics, rubber and other materials.
Variety and viscosity of silicone oil
Viscosity range: The viscosity of commonly used dimethyl silicone oil is 100-1000mm²/s, and the addition amount is 0.5%-10%.
Performance impact: Dimethyl silicone oil with different viscosities has a significant impact on the performance of polishing agents.
Application of silicone oil in surface treatment of glass and ceramics
Hydrophobicity and lubricity: Silicone oil can firmly adhere to the surface of glass and ceramics, providing hydrophobicity and lubricity.
Treatment method: Typically, dimethyl silicone oil with a viscosity of 100-500mm²/s is used to prepare a 3%-5% solution, which is applied to the material by immersion or spraying.
High temperature treatment: the treated glass or ceramic is treated at high temperature for 0.5~1 hour to enhance the adhesion of silicone oil.
The application of silicone oil in pharmaceutical packaging
Preventing drug adhesion: The inner side of the bottle treated with silicone oil can prevent drug adhesion.
Reduced wear: The treated bottle's outer surface can reduce scratches and wear during transportation.
Application of Silicone Oil in the Surface Treatment of Insulators
Electrical insulation: After heat treatment, the electrical insulation of glass and ceramic insulators is significantly improved by silicone oil.
Preventing electric leakage: Under high humidity conditions, silicone oil treatment can prevent electric leakage.
Natural cleaning: The surface treated with silicone oil can naturally remove dust under the action of wind and rain, maintaining insulation.
