Application of low surface tension of fluorosilicone oil in industry

Hits: 108 img

The low surface tension of fluorosilicone oil has a wide range of applications in industry. The following is a specific analysis of its application:


1. Lubrication
The low surface tension of fluorosilicone oil makes it easy to spread on the surface of the substrate and form a uniform lubricating film, which greatly reduces the friction coefficient between the substrates. In the application of mechanical parts such as bearings, gears, sealing gaskets, etc., fluorosilicone oil as a lubricant can significantly improve the operating efficiency of the equipment and reduce wear and energy consumption. At the same time, fluorosilicone oil can still maintain good lubrication properties in extremely low and high temperature environments, which makes it have unique advantages in high-end manufacturing fields such as aerospace and automobile manufacturing.

2. Waterproof and anti-fouling treatment
The low surface tension of fluorosilicone oil also gives it excellent waterproof and anti-fouling properties. In the surface treatment of materials such as fabrics, leather, and paper, fluorosilicone oil can form a dense hydrophobic layer to effectively prevent the penetration and adhesion of water and stains. This treatment not only improves the durability and aesthetics of the material, but also reduces the frequency of cleaning and maintenance. In addition, fluorosilicone oil can also be used for waterproof and oil-proof treatment of inorganic materials such as metals, glass, and ceramics, broadening its application range.

3. Application of defoamers
In the process of industrial production, the generation of foam often affects the quality and production efficiency of products. Due to its low surface tension, fluorosilicone oil can quickly reduce the surface tension of the foam system, thereby destroying the stability of the foam and causing it to dissipate quickly. Therefore, fluorosilicone oil is often used as a defoamer and is widely used in the fields of petroleum, textile, synthetic rubber and resin industry, coating and ink industry, etc.

4. Release agent and isolation agent
The low surface tension of fluorosilicone oil also makes it an ideal material for preparing release agents and isolation agents. In processes such as molding, pouring, encapsulation and coating, fluorosilicone oil can form a lubricating isolation layer to prevent adhesion between materials and molds, thereby improving product quality and production efficiency. At the same time, fluorosilicone oil as a release agent also has the advantages of non-toxicity, safety and environmental protection, which meets the requirements of modern industry for green production.

5. Other applications
In addition to the above applications, the low surface tension of fluorosilicone oil also plays an important role in other fields. For example, in the coating industry, fluorosilicone oil can be used as an additive to improve the coating's high temperature resistance, hydrophobicity, oil repellency, solvent resistance and other properties; in the protective coating of solar devices, fluorosilicone oil can use its low surface energy characteristics to play a self-cleaning role; in the carbon fiber drawing production process, fluorosilicone oil can be used as an oil to prevent adhesion and doubling between monofilaments.

In summary, the low surface tension of fluorosilicone oil has a wide range of application prospects in industry. With the advancement of science and technology and the development of industry, the application field of fluorosilicone oil will continue to expand and deepen.
