2. Silicone grease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicone_grease

   Silicone grease, sometimes called dielectric grease, is a waterproof grease made by combining a silicone oil with a thickener. Most commonly, the silicone oil is polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and the thickener is amorphous fumed silica. Using this formulation, silicone grease is a translucent white viscous paste, with exact properties dependent ...

3. Grease (lubricant) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grease_(lubricant)

   Two typical examples: Left - Krytox, a fluoroether-based grease; Right - a silicone-based high vacuum grease by Dow Corning. Apiezon, silicone-based, and fluoroether-based greases are all used commonly in laboratories for lubricating stopcocks and ground glass joints. The grease helps to prevent joints from "freezing", as well as ensuring high ...

4. Polydimethylsiloxane - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polydimethylsiloxane

   The rubbery, vinegary-smelling silicone caulks, adhesives, and aquarium sealants are also well-known. PDMS is also used as a component in silicone grease and other silicone based lubricants, as well as in defoaming agents, mold release agents, damping fluids, heat transfer fluids, polishes, cosmetics, hair conditioners and other applications.

5. Dry lubricant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_lubricant

   For parts that are inaccessible for lubrication after assembly, a dry film lubricant can be sprayed. After the solvent evaporates, the coating cures at room temperature to form a solid lubricant. Pastes are grease-like lubricants containing a high percentage of solid lubricants used for assembly and lubrication of highly loaded, slow-moving parts.

6. Perfluoropolyether - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfluoropolyether

   The main properties of PFPE are being temperature resistant between −58 °C (215 K) and 257 °C (530 K) (depending on specific composites), having very low outgassing compared to other fluids (vapour pressure of 6 × 10 −8 Torr) and having a dielectric strength of around 15.7 MV/m.

7. Talk:Silicone grease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Silicone_grease

   Regarding use of silicone grease on rotating contact. This is NOT an appropriate use for three reasons. a) As the author of the comment noted, the lubricating qualities of silicone grease may be insufficient. and b) rotating contacts may experience arcing at times. Silicone may convert to silicon carbide in the presence of electrical arcing.
