Krytox fluoroether-based grease pictured alongside a tube of Dow Corning silicone grease (green). Both are often used in laboratories, including in high-vacuum applications, due to their inertness. Both are often used in laboratories, including in high-vacuum applications, due to their inertness.
Grease is used to lubricate glass stopcocks and joints. Some laboratories fill them into syringes for easy application. Two typical examples: Left - Krytox, a fluoroether-based grease; Right - a silicone-based high vacuum grease by Dow Corning.
Two typical examples: Left – Krytox, a fluoroether-based grease; Right – a silicone-based high vacuum grease by Dow Corning. A thin layer of grease made for this application can be applied to the ground glass surfaces to be connected, and the inner joint is inserted into the outer joint such that the ground glass surfaces of each are next ...
Dow Corning, Bay City. Dow Corning was formally established in 1943 as a joint venture between the American conglomerates Dow Chemical and Corning Glass to explore the potential of silicone and was a manufacturer of products for use by the U.S. military in World War II. The company began operating its first plant, in Midland, MI, in 1945.
As well as a lubricant, vacuum grease is also used as a sealant for joints in vacuum systems. This is usually limited to soft vacuums, as ultra high vacuum or high temperatures may give problems with the grease outgassing. Grease is most commonly used with glass vacuum systems. [1] All metal systems usually use knife-edge seals in soft metals ...
Silicone grease is widely used as a temporary sealant and a lubricant for interconnecting ground glass joints, as is typically used in laboratory glassware.Although silicones are normally assumed to be chemically inert, several historically significant compounds have resulted from unintended reactions with silicones.
