SS-SF Silicone Oil

SS-SF are Silicone fluids (also called Silicone Oils) which are available in various viscosities having unique combination of properties, which give superior performance in a variety of applications.

Silicone Oils are clear, colorless, odorless and inert Dimethyl Polysiloxane. These fluids are manufactured in the viscosity range from 10 cps to 60000 cps. Intermediate and lesser viscosity are also available upon request.

SS-SF Silicone fluids are soluble in chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents and aromatic solvents. They have limited solubility in other solvents (Solubility here depending on viscosity).

If required, Supreme Silicones will provide emulsification process along with emulsifier.

Appearance	Viscosity	Volatile %	R.I	Flash Point	Specific Gravity
Clear Colorless Liquid	10 – 60000 cps	< 2	1.405 – 1.409	> 220°C	0.96 – 0.98

Typical Values – Should not be considered as specifications.

LOW VISCOSITY / TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT: They exhibit a smaller degree of change over a wider temperature range than petroleum oils.

THERMAL STABILITY: Silicone fluids show excellent stability when exposed to high temperatures. They are stable from -40°C to 200°C for extended periods and can exceed this for short periods.

OXIDATION STABILITY: Oxidation stability is excellent up to 200°C where sludging is eliminated unlike mineral oils.

CHEMICAL INERTNESS: They are chemically inert to most materials.

LOW FLAMMABILITY: Flash Point 250°C – 300°C, Auto ignition 438°C – 460°C.

LOW SURFACE TENSION: Provides excellent spreading & wetting.

SHEAR STABILITY: Up to twenty times higher than petroleum oils.

DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES: Excellent electrical insulation under adverse conditions.

Store in original sealed containers in a cool place and protect from direct sunlight.

Not suitable for medical / pharmaceutical applications.
