Silicones which full scientific name sounds as "oxygencontaining high-molecular kremniyorganichesky connections" have the following formula – R2SiO. This group unites a large amount of substances and substances, including silicone liquids, silicone elastomers and silicone pitches in the structure.
Instruction
1. Their application is very various – in construction, medicine, the household sphere and many other industries. Such popularity of silicones is caused by a number of the unique and very valuable qualities which are absent at other analogs. For example, silicones are capable to reduce or, on the contrary, to increase process of adhesion, to give to a target subject or substance of property of water repellency. They can keep basic parameters at the most extreme high or low temperatures and conditions of the increased humidity. Silicones also have dielectric abilities, bioinertness, high degree of elasticity and also are very durable and eco-friendly.
2. In the industry the silicone liquids and emulsions made on their basis are applied as anti-adhesive lubricants to the biggest and heavy compression molds, to preparation of hydrofobiziruyushchy liquids, from silicone prepare oils and plastic lubricants, depreciation liquids, cooling liquids and heat carriers and also dielectric structures and sealants. The defoaming agents made on the basis of silicone liquids are very popular.
3. Also the elastomers made of silicone in the following spheres – production of low-molecular and high-molecular rubbers, effective sealants of cold hardening, high-molecular rubbers of hot hardening, low-molecular kompaud of already cold hardening and also liquid rubbers of the LSR standard are not less popular.
4. From silicone prepare so-called silikonalkida and silikonpoliefira which are further a part of the mixes applied on various difficult coverings. The last thus receive firmness and stability, ability to electrical insulation and water repellency.
5. To list all range of silicone industrial output quite difficult. It is various laying, rings, sleeves, cuffs, silicone caps and much, many other. They can be applied in the following temperature range – from minus 60 wasps and to plus 200 wasps, but also there are variations. So special frost-resistant rubbers can maintain also temperature in minus of 100 wasps, and heat-resistant – up to plus 300 wasps.
6. Besides, ozone, sea water, boiled water, alcohol, mineral oils and various fuels and also solutions on the basis of acids and alkalis practically do not affect silicone. Silicone products also are resistant to radiation, UV-radiation and also electrocategories.
