Description
PACIFIC PURESIL Series is transparent, inert 100% Polydimethylsiloxane fluid available in a wide range of viscosities. Due to its chemical structure, it has stable characteristics over a wide temperature range and is used in board range of applications.
Applications
- As a release agent Used purely or as a part of a compounded formula BRB Silicone oil provides a non-toxic, non-carbonising mould release for rubber, plastics and metal die-castings.
- As an Anti-Foam agent Very small quantities of the fluid are very effective as a foam control agent, especially in non aqueous systems.
- As a mechanical fluid The very high viscosity-index, the thermal and chemical stability, shear-breakdown resistance and the rubber compatibility as well as the compressibility make this fluid outstanding for mechanical and hydraulic uses.
- As a lubricant The fluid provides excellent lubricating properties for most plastic and elastomeric surfaces. Lubricity with metals depends upon the possible combinations such as P.T.F.E., MoS2 and other lubricity improvers.
- In polishes and chemical specialities Silicone oil is used in most automobile and furniture polishes for its ease of application, high gloss with a minimum rubbing and durable water repellent film.
- In electrical and electronic equipment. Because of the excellent dielectric properties silicone oil is widely used as an insulating and damping fluid.
Instructions to Use
- Little change in physical properties over a wide temperature range.
- The fluid can be used from -40 °C to 280 °C.
- Excellent water repellency.
- Low surface tension. The fluid readily wets clean surfaces to impart water repellency and release characteristics.
- Low toxicity.
