About Silicone oil (SFP-30000)
Silicone oil 30000 CST is ahigh-viscosity, colourless, odorless, and transparent polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) fluid, known for its excellent thermal stability, low surface tension, water repellency, and electrical insulating properties.This viscous liquid is used as a lubricant, hydraulic and heat transfer fluid, dielectric fluid, and in various personal care products and sealants due to its stable performance across a wide temperature range and its ability to form protective, non-greasy films.Exceptional Thermal StabilityWith an operating temperature range from -50C to +200C and a flash point exceeding 300C, SFP-30000 silicone oil is engineered to maintain performance in demanding thermal environments. Its stability ensures safety and reliability in applications requiring consistent lubrication or insulation under extreme heat or cold.
Versatile Industrial and Laboratory ApplicationsThanks to its high purity (99.9%) and industrial-grade quality, this silicone oil is suitable for a wide array of uses including lubrication, hydraulic fluids, insulation, and as a release agent. Its chemical composition (polydimethylsiloxane) enables compatibility across pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and laboratory processes.
Convenient and Safe Packaging SolutionsSFP-30000 silicone oil is supplied in secure, tamper-evident bottles or durable drums ranging from 500 ml to 200 L, ensuring suitability for projects of any scale. The product remains stable for 24 months during storage, provided it is kept in tightly sealed carboys at room temperature away from direct sunlight.
FAQ's of Silicone oil (SFP-30000):
Q: How should SFP-30000 silicone oil be stored for optimal shelf life?
A: SFP-30000 silicone oil should be stored in tightly closed containers such as carboys, bottles, or drums, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Proper storage ensures its 24-month shelf life and maintains purity and performance.
Q: What industries benefit most from using this silicone oil?
A: Industries including industrial manufacturing, laboratories, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics benefit from this silicone oil due to its high thermal stability, excellent lubrication properties, and chemical inertness. It's also a suitable choice for hydraulic fluids, insulation, and as a release agent.
Q: When is SFP-30000 silicone oil preferred over standard mineral oils?
A: SFP-30000 is preferred when high viscosity, superior thermal stability (operating range -50C to +200C), and chemical inertness are required-such as in hydraulic systems, heat transfer applications, or environments with fluctuating temperatures. Its purity and resistance to oxidation make it suitable for sensitive applications.
Q: Where can this silicone oil be used within laboratory settings?
A: In laboratories, SFP-30000 silicone oil is employed as an inert bath fluid for temperature control, a lubricant for glassware joints, or as a release agent in processes requiring chemical stability and non-reactivity. Its transparency and odorless profile also suit analytical applications.
Q: What is the process for using this oil as a release agent?
A: To use SFP-30000 as a release agent, apply a thin, even layer onto the desired mold or surface. Its non-stick, high-viscosity characteristics ensure easy removal of materials with minimal adhesion and residue, boosting production efficiency in molding or casting operations.
Q: Can SFP-30000 be used for cosmetic or pharmaceutical applications?
A: Yes, owing to its high purity (99.9%), chemical inertness, and lack of odor, SFP-30000 silicone oil is suitable for select cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications, particularly as a base fluid or inert ingredient where safety and purity are paramount.
