SSPL S Fluid is dimethyl polysiloxane, whose structure, amazing combination of chemical and physical properties are dependent on the presence of the unique silicone-oxygen-silicone skeleton. This semi-organic fluid chemically related to glass, quartz and the mineral silicates possesses much of the stability and good dielectric properties of this group.
Available in the form of crystal-clear liquid of viscosity from 0.65 to 2.5 million centistokes, except for the very low viscosity grades SSPL S Fluid is serviceable from — 40° to 200° C. Its service life at high temperature can be considerably increased by employment in closed system out of contact with air or oxygen. It is characterized by non-toxicity and non-irritating, oxidation resistance, water repellency, high resistance to permanent break-down due to shear, uniform retention of dielectric properties over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies, and long service-life where conventional organic liquids fail rapidly.

SOLUBILITY AND COMPATIBILITY:
SSPL Silicone Fluid is soluble in hydrocarbon solvents, and in low molecular weight aromatic solvents. Limited solubility in acetone, alcohols, ethers of glycols and solubility varies with viscosity.
Different viscosities may be blended to obtain intermediate viscosities.
