Dimethyl silicone oil is a low-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) fluid with a kinematic viscosity of 10 cSt at 25 °C (CAS 63148-62-9). It is a colorless to light yellow, hydrophobic, and chemically inert fluid commonly used in laboratory and industrial research as a lubricant, release agent, and solvent modifier.
- Low kinematic viscosity of 10 cSt at 25 °C for easy flow
- Hydrophobic and chemically inert, providing chemical compatibility
- Low volatility and vapor pressure to reduce losses during use
- Relative density ~0.93 g/cm³ for formulation and dosing calculations
- Stable under recommended storage conditions for extended shelf life
- Suitable as a lubricant, release agent, or solvent modifier in research applications
