As a multifunctional additive, silicone oil plays an irreplaceable role in the formulation of polishing agents and surface treatment agents.
Application of silicone oil in polishing agent
Fluidity: Silicone oil gives the polish good fluidity, making it easy to apply evenly.
Hydrophobic film: Silicone oil can form a hydrophobic film on the surface to enhance gloss and weather resistance.
Application areas: Silicone oil-prepared polishes are not only used in automobiles, but are also widely used in the surface treatment of leather products, furniture, plastics, rubber and other materials.
Types and Viscosity of Silicone Oil
Viscosity range: The viscosity of commonly used dimethyl silicone oil is 100~1000mm²/s, and the addition amount is 0.5%~10%.
Performance impact: Dimethyl silicone oil of different viscosities has a significant impact on the performance of polishing agents.
Application of silicone oil in glass and ceramic surface treatment
Hydrophobicity and Lubricity: Silicone oil can firmly adhere to glass and ceramic surfaces, providing hydrophobicity and lubricity.
Treatment method: Usually use dimethyl silicone oil with a viscosity of 100~500mm²/s, prepare a 3%~5% solution, and treat the material by dipping or spraying.
High temperature treatment: The treated glass or ceramic is treated at high temperature for 0.5 to 1 hour to enhance the adhesion of silicone oil.
Application of silicone oil in pharmaceutical packaging
Prevent drugs from sticking to the bottle: The inside of the bottle treated with silicone oil can prevent drugs from sticking to the bottle.
Reduced wear: The treated outer surface of the bottle reduces scratches and wear during transportation.
Application of Silicone Oil in Surface Treatment of Insulators
Electrical insulation: Glass and ceramic insulators heat treated with silicone oil can significantly improve their electrical insulation.
Prevent leakage: In a high humidity environment, silicone oil treatment can prevent leakage.
Natural cleaning: The surface treated with silicone oil can naturally remove dust and maintain insulation under the action of wind and rain.
