General description

Silicone oil AP 1000 is a polydimethylsiloxane with a high proportion of phenyl groups.

Trace amounts of acids, alkalis, mineral oils, organometallic compounds, and metal salts/oxides are known to reduce the service life of the silicone oil.

Application

Silicone oil AP 1000 is useful as:
  • pressure transfer oil
  • heat transfer oil
  • a dielectric in capacitors and transformers
  • base fluid of heat resistant lubricants

Features and Benefits

Especially good thermostability (-35°C to +200°C)

Storage Class Code

10 - Combustible liquids
