Fluorosilicone oil exhibits extremely high chemical inertness to fuels and other chemicals in steam power cycle systems. This means that fluorosilicone oil can remain stable in these environments and is not easy to react chemically with fuels or other chemicals. This property makes fluorosilicone oil an ideal lubricant in steam power cycle systems because it can maintain its lubrication performance and stability in contact with various chemicals.
Specifically, the chemical inertness of fluorosilicone oil comes from its special chemical structure. The fluorocarbon groups in the fluorosilicone oil molecules have low surface tension, which makes the fluorosilicone oil as a whole show excellent chemical and thermal stability. This stability enables fluorosilicone oil to maintain its performance in high temperature, high pressure and corrosive environments, and is not easily decomposed or oxidized.
In addition, fluorosilicone oil also has a certain low volatility, high flash point and ignition point, as well as good lubricity and oxidation resistance. These characteristics further enhance the applicability of fluorosilicone oil in steam power cycle systems. It can not only effectively lubricate various components in the system, reduce friction and wear, but also maintain the stability and reliability of the system.
In summary, fluorosilicone oil exhibits extremely high chemical inertness to fuels and other chemicals in the steam power cycle system, which makes it an indispensable lubricating material in the system.
