Phenyl silicone fluid, also known as phenylmethyl silicone fluid, is a type of silicone oil that contains phenyl groups in addition to the typical methyl groups found in most silicone fluids. The addition of phenyl groups can alter the properties of the silicone fluid, making it more resistant to high temperatures and oxidation compared to traditional silicone fluids.
Phenyl silicone fluids are commonly used in a variety of industrial applications where high thermal stability and chemical resistance are required. They can be found in products such as lubricants, heat transfer fluids, hydraulic fluids, and as additives in personal care products and cosmetics.
