硅油是一类以线性聚硅氧烷为基础的液态有机硅材料,具有优异的热稳定性、低温流动性、耐氧化性和化学惰性。它的粘度范围广、润滑性能好、表面张力低,并且具有良好的电绝缘性和疏水性。硅油广泛应用于工业润滑、脱模剂、消泡剂、绝缘介质和液压油等领域,还可作为化妆品、医药制剂中的添加剂。通过调整硅油的分子量和改性结构,可以满足各种特定性能需求,例如提高耐高温、耐剪切性或亲水性。
Silicone oil refers to a class of liquid organic silicon materials based on linear polysiloxanes, known for their excellent thermal stability, low-temperature fluidity, oxidation resistance, and chemical inertness. It has a wide viscosity range, good lubricating properties, low surface tension, and outstanding electrical insulation and hydrophobic characteristics. Silicone oil is widely used in industrial lubrication, release agents, defoaming agents, insulating media, and hydraulic fluids. It is also an additive in cosmetics and pharmaceutical formulations. By adjusting the molecular weight and modifying the structure, silicone oil can be tailored to meet specific performance requirements, such as enhanced heat resistance, shear stability, or hydrophilicity.
