Application of fluorosilicone oil in oil and solvent resistance

Hits: 272 img

Fluorosilicone oil is widely used in oil and solvent resistance, which is mainly due to its special chemical structure and excellent physical and chemical properties. The following is a detailed description of the application of fluorosilicone oil in oil and solvent resistance:

1. Oil resistance
Fluorosilicone oil introduces trifluoropropyl on the silicon atom, which makes fluorosilicone oil have excellent oil resistance. It can remain stable in a variety of oily environments and is not easily corroded or dissolved by oil substances. Therefore, fluorosilicone oil is often used as:

Lubricant: In mechanical parts such as bearings, gears, sealing gaskets and other parts that need lubrication, fluorosilicone oil can provide long-term and stable lubrication, reduce friction and wear, and improve the operating efficiency and life of the machine.
Release agent: In industries such as mold manufacturing and plastic processing, fluorosilicone oil as a release agent can significantly reduce the adhesion between the mold and the product, making it easier for the product to be removed from the mold while keeping the mold clean and smooth.

2. Solvent resistance
Fluorosilicone oil is not only oil-resistant, but also has good solvent resistance. It can resist the erosion of a variety of organic and inorganic solvents and maintain the stability of its physical and chemical properties. This makes fluorosilicone oil widely used in the following fields:

Coating and ink industry: Fluorosilicone oil can be used as a coating leveling agent to improve the coating's coating performance and appearance quality. At the same time, it can also be used as an additive for inks to improve the dispersibility and stability of inks.
Chemical industry: In chemical production, fluorosilicone oil is often used as a sealant, waterproofing agent, and antifouling agent, etc., which can protect equipment and pipelines from solvent erosion and pollution.

3. Comprehensive application
In addition to the above specific applications, fluorosilicone oil can also be used in combination with other materials to form products with special properties. For example:

Fluorosilicone grease and fluorosilicone paste: fluorosilicone oil is used as the base oil and is prepared by adding thickeners, stabilizers and modified additives. These products have a wider operating temperature range and better lubrication properties. They are suitable for the lubrication of high-speed, heavy-load bearings in contact with chemical reagents and the lubrication and sealing of valves in contact with corrosive compounds.
Waterproof and oil-proof treatment agent: Fluorosilicone oil can form a molecular assembly film with an outer chemical composition of -CF3 on the surface of the substrate through chemical adsorption. It has high hydrophobicity and oleophobicity, which can greatly reduce the friction coefficient of the substrate and make it have good wear resistance under low load. Therefore, it is often used as a waterproof and anti-fouling finishing agent for fabrics, leather, etc., and a waterproof and oil-proof treatment agent for metal, glass, ceramics and other surfaces.
In summary, fluorosilicone oil has significant advantages and broad application prospects in terms of oil resistance and solvent resistance. With the advancement of science and technology and the development of industry, the application field of fluorosilicone oil will continue to expand and deepen.
