  2. Polydimethylsiloxane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polydimethylsiloxane

    Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), also known as dimethylpolysiloxane or dimethicone, is a silicone polymer with a wide variety of uses, from cosmetics to industrial lubrication and passive daytime radiative cooling. [1] [2] [3] PDMS is particularly known for its unusual rheological (or flow) properties.

  3. Siloxane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siloxane

    Polydimethylsiloxane is a prevalent siloxane. In organosilicon chemistry, a siloxane is an organic compound containing a functional group of two silicon atoms bound to an oxygen atom: Si−O−Si. The parent siloxanes include the oligomeric and polymeric hydrides with the formulae H[OSiH 2] n OH and [OSiH 2] n. [1]

  4. Silicone oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone_oil

    The class of silicone oils known as cyclosiloxanes has many of the same properties as other non-cyclic siloxane liquids but also has a relatively high volatility, making it useful in a number of cosmetic products such as antiperspirant. Some silicone oils, such as simethicone, are potent anti-foaming agents due to their low surface tension.

  5. Organosilicon chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organosilicon_chemistry

    Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is the principal component of silicones. Organosilicon chemistry is the study of organometallic compounds containing carbon–silicon bonds, to which they are called organosilicon compounds. Most organosilicon compounds are similar to the ordinary organic compounds, being colourless, flammable, hydrophobic, and ...

  6. Decamethylcyclopentasiloxane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decamethylcyclopentasiloxane

    Hydrolysis of the dichloride produces a mixture of cyclic dimethylsiloxanes and polydimethylsiloxane. From this mixture, the cyclic siloxanes including D 5 can be removed by distillation. In the presence of a strong base such as KOH , the polymer/ring mixture is equilibrated, allowing complete conversion to the more volatile cyclic siloxanes ...

  7. Dimethyldiethoxysilane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyldiethoxysilane

    Dimethyldiethoxysilane, sometimes abbreviated DMDEOS or DMDES, is an organosilicon compound.DMDEOS is a precursor in the production of the silicone polymer polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS).

  9. Release agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Release_agent

    Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a typical release agent. A release agent (also mold release agent, release coating, or mold release coating) is a chemical used to prevent other materials from bonding to surfaces. Release agents aid in processes involving mold release, die-cast release, plastic release, adhesive release, and tire and web release. [1]
