Introduction to BTL's Silicone/Oil
Silicone Oil, chemically known as polysiloxane oil, is a polymer material with unique properties. It consists of a backbone made up of alternating silicon and oxygen atoms, with side chains usually attached to methyl, ethyl, or other organic groups. The basic structural unit of silicone oil is the siloxane bond (Si-O), which forms the backbone of the silicone oil, while the side chains are organic groups, such as methyl (-CH3) and ethyl (-C2H5). This structure gives silicone oil the thermal stability and chemical inertness of inorganic materials, as well as the flexibility and processability of organic materials.
Silicone oil is usually a colorless or pale yellow transparent liquid. The viscosity can vary greatly depending on the molecular weight and molecular structure, ranging from very low viscosity liquids to high viscosity grease-like substances. Silicone oil has low surface tension, which allows it to wet surfaces well.
Types of Silicone Fluid/Silicone Oil
Silicone oils can be categorized into several types based on their chemical structure and application. Here are some common types of silicone oils:
Methyl Silicone Oil: The most common type of silicone oil, where the side chain mainly consists of methyl groups. Depending on viscosity, it can be classified into low, medium, and high-viscosity methyl silicone oils.
Ethyl Silicone Oil: The side chain mainly consists of ethyl groups. Compared to methyl silicone oil, ethyl silicone oil has higher viscosity.
Phenyl Silicone Oil: Contains phenyl groups in the side chain, offering better thermal stability and oxidation resistance, commonly used in high-temperature environments.
Vinyl Silicone Oil: Contains vinyl groups in the side chain and can be used as a raw material or cross-linking agent for silicone rubber.
Fluorosilicone Oil: Contains fluorinated alkyl groups in the side chain, providing excellent chemical and oil resistance, often used in lubricants and sealants.
Amino Silicone Oil: Contains amino groups in the side chain, commonly used in textile softeners and hair care products.
Polyether Modified Silicone Oil: Contains polyether groups in the side chain, offering excellent hydrophilicity and emulsification properties, used in cosmetics and personal care products.
Alkyl Silicone Oil: Contains long-chain alkyl groups in the side chain, providing better lubricity and hydrophobicity.
Water-Soluble Silicone Oil: Specially modified to mix with water, used in applications where water-soluble silicone oil is required.
Hydroxyl Terminated Silicone Oil: Contains hydroxyl groups at the ends of the molecular chain, which can be used as a cross-linking agent or to react with other substances to form new silicone materials.
Methyl Hydrogen Silicone Oil: Contains Si-H bonds, can be used as a cross-linking agent for silicone rubber or for addition reactions with other compounds containing double bonds.
These types of silicone oils have unique properties and are suitable for various industrial and consumer applications. The choice of suitable silicone oil type depends on specific application requirements and performance needs.

Heated Topic: Is Silicone Fluid Safe?
Electronic-grade vinyl silicone oil is a special type of silicone oil that contains vinyl groups (-CH=CH2) in its molecular structure. This type of silicone oil has various advantages in the electronics industry. BTL's electronic-grade vinyl silicone oil offers excellent chemical stability, low volatility, and low vapor pressure, allowing it to remain stable over a wide temperature range without decomposition or degradation. It is suitable for high-temperature electronic applications, reducing potential contamination in electronic devices during use. In electronic components, vinyl silicone oil improves product reliability and lifespan. Due to these advantages, BTL's electronic-grade vinyl silicone oil is widely used in electronic component encapsulation, insulation, heat dissipation, lubrication, and protection, as well as in transformers, capacitors, resistors, printed circuit boards (PCBs), and semiconductor devices.
Phenyl Silicone Oil is a special type of silicone oil with phenyl groups (C6H5-) in its molecular structure. This silicone oil offers the following advantages due to its unique structure:
Excellent Thermal Stability: Phenyl silicone oil has better stability at high temperatures and is less likely to decompose, making it suitable for high-temperature applications. BTL produces a wide range of phenyl silicone oils, which are used in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, electronics, chemicals, and cosmetics. Specific applications include:
High-temperature lubricants
Insulating oil and cooling media
High-temperature sealants
Formulation ingredients for high-performance rubber and plastics
Additives in cosmetics and personal care products
