Silicone oil is one of the main products in the silicone industry. In recent years, in addition to dimethyl silicon oil, other various silicone oils continuous appeared.
But dimethyl silicon oil is still the most important silicone oil products. Dimethyl silicone oil is a transparent liquid, not easy to burn, has good thermal stability, low volatility, low freezing point, good insulation, it also has waterproof and chemically inert and other advantages.
Because of silicone oil has many excellent properties, so that it has extensive uses and diverse. Be broadly divided into the following areas: in process additives, silicone oil is widely used in the pressure system and some lubricant. Such as be defoamers in the lubricant and the pressure oil, high vacuum equipment’s lubricating and sealing, aviation good oils and lubrication of precision machinery. It also can be used as release agents of vibration damping, used in automobiles and aircraft shock absorber and torsional vibration Eliminator. With a long chain chlorinated-phenyl and alkyl silicone oil, its lubricating performance is better.
Paper handling, silicone oil is widely used in paper processing. Paper through silicone oil treated will have excellent water resistance. For example, book covers, calendars, paper, bread and sweets cohesionless packed and liners, adhesive inserts, anti-pressure-sensitive adhesive labels and so on, are processed by the silicone oil.
In textile industry was mainly using silicone oil’s lubrication, smudge-proof and waterproof features to do some certain processing on textiles. After fibers lubricated treated with silicone oil, can be reduced breaking line when knitting, improving the texture of fabric. Waterproof treated fabric is mainly used for waterproof clothing.
In the electrical and electronic industry, it is largely to take advantage of silicone oil’s high resistivity, low dielectric loss, insulation and non-combustibility and other natures. Make silicone oil can be used as a coolant in vacuum tubes, rectifier and many electrical components, as insulators in the capacitors and switch gear. Another potential use is for larger transformer oil to replace the toxic polychlorinated biphenyls.
In other aspects, silicone oil for personal skin care products originated in the United States, has 49 years histories. In recent 10 years, its application developed faster. In 1991, silicon oils for cosmetic raw material in Japan had 1450t. Now world consumption in this area has reached 20,000t per year. Especially the low surface tension of silicone oil, has good lubrication for the skin, combined with proper viscosity making other cosmetic component easy to disperse and expanded into a film on the skin.
Use silicone oil to prepare skin-care products, not only hydrate the skin, forming a layer of acid, alkali, salt, and organic solvents and other protective coating, but also can maintain skin’s normal breathing and treated dermatitis and eczema. Silicone oil in various vitamins, fungicides have dissolution effect, cosmetics made it can form a very thin layer of hydrophobic membrane on the skin surface, do not afraid of soaping, effectively extending the role of nutritional cream and antibiotic cream. Added silicone oil cream can protect the skin from the risks of pigments, solvents. Equipped with silicone oil or other siloxane lipsticks, face powders, makeup, Mascara, Nail polish, hair liquid, blusher and other makeup would not contain too much fat, promoting the diffusion and distribution of cosmetics ingredients, and extending its effective period.

The application of tungsten in various industries
Steel Industry Most of tungsten applied in the production of special steels. The widely used high-speed steel was containing 9-24% of tungsten, 3.8-4.6% of chromium, 1-5% of vanadium, 4-7% of cobalt, 0.7-1.5% of carbon.
Magic effects of coconut oil
According to records, coconut oil can be regarded as the nobility of skin care plant extracts. It was rich in exotic tension of tropical plants, which can enhance the contractile force of the pores, perfectly beautify and nourish the skin.
Exploring the Potentials of Nano-Aluminum Powder
Nano-aluminum powder, a material with remarkable properties due to its minuscule particle size, is revolutionizing various industries with its high reactivity and large specific surface area. Unlike its bulk counterpart, nano-aluminum powder begins to oxidize at a lower temperature of 550°C, compared to the 950°C oxidation point of ordinary aluminum. This lower ignition energy and full combustion without apparent cohesion make it a superior choice for applications requiring high energy and efficiency. The unique characteristics of nano-aluminum powder, such as faster burning rates and greater heat release, are largely influenced by its synthesis method, which determines its particle size, surface area, and shape.
