Silicone Oil 1000 cSt – High-Performance Lubricant and Fluid

Description

Silicone Oil 1000 cSt is a high-viscosity, clear, and odorless polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) fluid known for its excellent thermal stability, lubrication properties, and chemical inertness. With a viscosity of 1000 centistokes, it offers a thicker consistency compared to lower-grade silicone oils, making it ideal for applications requiring more durable film formation and controlled flow.

This fluid is non-toxic, non-reactive, and resistant to oxidation and temperature extremes, maintaining stable performance across a wide operating range. It is also hydrophobic, providing excellent water-repellent properties and low surface tension.

Applications of Silicone Oil 1000 cSt:

• Lubrication of plastic and rubber components
• Mold release agent in manufacturing
• Cosmetics and personal care formulations (e.g., creams, conditioners)
• Electrical insulation and damping fluids
• Hydraulic and mechanical systems requiring stable viscosity
• Polishing and surface treatment applications

Storage Guidelines

• Store in tightly closed original containers when not in use.
• Keep in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
• Protect from contamination by dust, water, and other foreign materials.
• Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures to preserve product performance.
• Keep containers sealed to prevent moisture ingress and maintain product purity.
• Store away from strong oxidizing agents and incompatible chemicals.
• Clearly label containers and follow inventory rotation practices (first-in, first-out).

Handling Instructions:

• Personal Protective Equipment (PPE):
  • Wear protective gloves, safety goggles, and a face mask when handling to avoid irritation.
  • Avoid direct skin or eye contact as the product is highly concentrated and pungent.
• Ventilation:
  • Handle in a well-ventilated area or under an appropriate fume hood to avoid inhaling fumes.
• Spill Management:
  • In case of spills, use absorbent materials like sand or cloth to clean up immediately.
  • Avoid water, as it can spread the product and worsen the spill area.
• First Aid:
  • Skin Contact: Wash immediately with plenty of soap and cool water. Avoid hot water, as it may intensify irritation.
  • Eye Contact: Rinse eyes thoroughly with clean water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
  • Inhalation: Move to fresh air immediately. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
• Warnings:
  • Do not ingest.
  • Keep away from children and pets.

Spill Management

• Contain spills promptly to prevent spreading.
• Absorb with inert materials such as sand, clay, or commercial absorbents.
• Collect waste material in suitable containers for disposal according to local regulations.
• Exercise caution when walking near spill areas due to slip hazards.

Shelf Life

When stored under recommended conditions in unopened containers, Silicone Oil 1000 cSt typically maintains its quality for an extended period. Always refer to the manufacturer’s specifications for exact shelf-life information.
