2. Silicone rubber - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone_rubber

   An uncured piece of liquid silicone rubber. Silicone rubber is an elastomer (rubber-like material) composed of silicone —itself a polymer —containing silicon together with carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Silicone rubbers are widely used in industry, and there are multiple formulations. Silicone rubbers are often one- or two-part polymers, and ...

3. Silicone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone

   Contents. Silicone. Not to be confused with the chemical element silicon. Silicone caulk can be used as a basic sealant against water and air penetration. In organosilicon and polymer chemistry, a silicone or polysiloxane is a polymer composed of repeating units of siloxane (−O−R2Si−O−SiR2−, where R = organic group).

4. 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] It is particularly known for its unusual rheological (or flow) properties. PDMS is optically clear and, in general, inert ...

5. Food contact materials - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_contact_materials

   Food contact materials or food contacting substances (FCS) [1][2] are materials that are intended to be in contact with food. These can be things that are quite obvious like a glass or a can for soft drinks as well as machinery in a food factory or a coffee machine. Food contact materials can be constructed from a variety of materials ...

6. Silicone oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone_oil

   Silicone oils are primarily used as lubricants, thermic fluid oils or hydraulic fluids. They are excellent electrical insulators [2] and, unlike their carbon analogues, are non- flammable. Their temperature stability and good heat-transfer characteristics make them widely used in laboratories for heating baths ("oil baths") placed on top of ...

7. Medical grade silicone - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_grade_silicone

   Medical grade silicones are generally grouped into three categories: non implantable, short term implantable, and long-term implantable. Materials approved as Class V and VI can be considered medical grade. Most medical grade silicones are at least Class VI certified. Silicone suppliers and some silicone prototyping companies provide guidelines ...
