SILICON OIL PDMS 5L

Silicone oil is a versatile, synthetic, and inert fluid belonging to the class of polysiloxanes. It is primarily composed of linear polymers such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), featuring repeating siloxane units (-Si-O-Si-) with organic side groups like methyl or phenyl attached to the silicon atoms. Silicone oils are known for their stability, low surface tension, and unique combination of hydrophobic and lubricating properties.

Key Characteristics:

• Chemical Composition: Polysiloxane-based, typically polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS).
• Appearance: Clear, colorless, and viscous liquid.
• Viscosity: Ranges from very low to extremely high, depending on the molecular weight and formulation. 
• Thermal Stability: Operates effectively across a wide temperature range (-50°C to 300°C).
• Hydrophobicity: Resists water absorption, making it water-repellent.
• Non-Toxic and Inert: Chemically stable and non-reactive with most substances.

Applications:

1. Personal Care and Cosmetics:

• Used in hair serums, skincare products, and makeup for its smoothing and conditioning effects.
• Provides a non-greasy, silky texture to formulations.
