Modified silicone oil types, mechanical properties and applications
Silicone oil is famous for its greater stability and high-temperature non-toxic use at low surface tension and high spreading power. It is the mixture of polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) with dimethicone and simethicone, therefore largely used in industrial products due to their unique properties like non-toxicity, high lubricity and stable film strips formations, and widely used in lubricants, electric insulator, laboratories, anti-foaming, etc. Silicone oil is chosen by improving their lubrication performance in mechanical system like resin, films, satellite and space vehicles. The purpose of this study is to design for evaluating and distinguishing feature of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) or silicone oil to show their mechanical and thermal properties. In industrial field, i.e., improved their adhesive and contact angle properties for their long time durability and stability. The aim of this review is to elaborate and distinguish the feature of polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS) or silicone oil to show their mechanical and thermal properties showing the shinning properties and importance of silicone oil in daily routine and in industry. Also silicone oil and there derivates like polymethyl hydrogen siloxane, amino silicone, phenyl methyl silicone, vinyl silicone and hydrogen silicone oil play a key role in curing agent, hair-care cosmetics and shampoos and thermostat fluid anti-adhesion processing. Materials which we have used in this review such as polymethyl hydrogen siloxane, amino silicone oil, phenyl methyl silicone oil, vinyl silicone oil and hydrogen silicone oil show significant and potential properties in various fields of industries. Different types of methods like cross-linking, copolymerization and coupling agents were used in different reactions in this review. Also synthetic types of compounds were also used for different properties giving excellent results. This review highlighted the beneficial aspects of silicone oil in various fields. Silicone oil shows prominent properties like lubrication, smooth gliding behavior, wettability, mechanical strength, mechanical stability and high-performance coating. Silicone oil is also useful for decreasing surface tension and retaining the moisture.
