About SFP OH polydimethylsiloxane
Product DescriptionSFP OH 5000 is a low molecular weight, non-solvent based, linear polydimethylsiloxane that is terminated with primary carbinol groups capable of normal alcohol reactions. It is used to modify various polymers in order to improve their surface and physical properties.2) PropertiesAppearance Clear to slight hazy viscous Liquid Viscosity at 250 C, cps 5000Volatile content in% 2.5 max3) Application3.1) According to different viscosity and OH content, SFP OH 5000, Hydroxyl silicone oil is widely used in construction, electronics, textiles, papers, cosmetics,plastics, printing and other industries.3.2) SFP OH 5000, called small molecule hydroxyl silicone oil, can replaced phenylsilandiol and act as a structure controller for the processing of silicone rubber. It can also be used for waterproof, soften and anti-stick treatment of textiles, leathers and papers.3.3) SFP OH 5000 can be used as base rubbers for condensation RTV silicone rubber and raw materials for other silicone products3.4) SFP OH 5000 can be used as sealing agents or components of insulators or insulating paint for semiconductors and electric industry.4) Packaging and storageFurther information for storage: Store in a dry and cool place. The "Best use before end date" of each batch is shown on the Certificate of Analysis. Storage beyond the dates pecified on the Certificate of Analysis does not necessarily mean that the product is no longer usable. In this case however, the properties required for the intended use must be checked for quality assurance reasons.5) Safety notesFor specific information regarding safe handling of this material, please Safety Data Sheet.

FAQ's of SFP OH polydimethylsiloxane:
Q: How should SFP OH polydimethylsiloxane be stored to maximize its shelf life?
A: To achieve the 24-month shelf life, store the product in tightly sealed HDPE containers, away from moisture, extreme heat, and direct sunlight. Ensure storage temperatures remain within -40C to 200C.
Q: What industries commonly use this silicone fluid and for what applications?
A: This product is widely used in the cosmetics and personal care industry, as well as in lubricants, mold release agents, polishes, water repellents, and textile softeners. Its chemical stability and purity make it valuable in both manufacturing and formulation processes.
Q: Is SFP OH polydimethylsiloxane compatible with water-based systems?
A: No, this fluid is insoluble in water but is soluble in most organic solvents, making it better suited for oil-based or solvent-based systems rather than water-based formulations.
Q: What benefits does SFP OH polydimethylsiloxane offer compared to other lubricants?
A: It provides superior thermal stability, excellent lubrication at extreme temperatures, and minimal residue, along with non-toxicity and high purity. Its clear, odorless nature is especially advantageous in sensitive or visible applications.
Q: When is this silicone fluid most effective for mold release or lubrication?
A: It is most effective within the recommended operating temperature range of -40C to 200C. Its low pour point and high flash point allow it to function reliably in both cold and high heat processes.
Q: What packaging options are available for this product and where is it produced?
A: The product is manufactured and exported from India, available in HDPE bottles, drums, cans, and jerry cans in sizes from 100 ml to 200 L, catering to both small and large-scale industrial requirements.
