With adjustable viscosity, it meets diverse application needs and has good biocompatibility, complying with relevant international and domestic standards. It is a versatile functional material with stable performance and wide adaptability.
Product Overview
Hongye SIlicone Rubber's Dimethyl silicone oil is a new type of synthetic polymer material with a linear polydimethylsiloxane structure, chemical formula (CH₃)₃SiO((CH₃)₂SiO)ₙSi(CH₃)₃ (n is the degree of polymerization), CAS number 9006-65-9. Also called methyl silicone oil or 201 silicone oil, it is equivalent to foreign brands such as DC-200 and KF96. It exists as a flowable liquid with different viscosities (5cps~8000000cps) and has no corrosion to metals, making it easy to store and use.

Certifications and Compliance
Complies with GB 1886.27-2015 (food grade), GB/T 26527-2011 (industrial grade), and meets international standards such as FDA and EU E900. All indicators meet the requirements of relevant national and industrial standards, passing strict quality testing before leaving the factory.
Customization Options
Customizable viscosity (5cps~8000000cps) according to customer needs; Provide different purity grades (industrial grade, food grade, medical grade); Customize packaging specifications (25kg, 50kg, 200kg, 950kg) to meet different usage and transportation needs.
Production Process
Raw materials (organosilicon monomers) → hydrolysis and polycondensation (using weak acid clay as catalyst for high selectivity catalysis) → neutralization and purification → viscosity adjustment → filtration and inspection → finished product packaging. The process is environmentally friendly, with short reaction time and low cyclic body residue.
