จุดเด่นของผลิตภัณฑ์

  • คุณภาพระดับอุตสาหกรรม
  • รองรับการใช้งานเฉพาะทาง
  • พัฒนาโดย Shin-Etsu Silicones

Features

  • Heat resistance

    Silicone fluids have outstanding stability against thermal oxidation.

  • Cold resistance

    Silicone fluids withstand low temperatures well. Methylphenyl silicone fluid, formulated for low temperature applications, maintains flowability even at -65°C.

  • Viscosity stability

    There is little change in viscosity over a wide temperature range.

  • Chemical stability

    Silicone fluids are almost totally chemically inactive. At room temperature, they show almost no effects from alkali solutions (up to 10%) or acidic solutions (up to 30%).

  • Non-corrosive and little effect on other materials

    Silicone fluids have almost no adverse effects on metals and many other materials.

  • Low surface tension

    Silicone fluids have much lower surface tension than water and other common synthetic oils.
