SILISIL Silicone Oil 10 cSt — Low-viscosity PDMS silicone oil
SILISIL Silicone Oil 10 cSt is a low-viscosity, linear polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with excellent flow properties. Thanks to its high wettability and low surface tension, it is particularly suitable for lubrication applications that require thin film thicknesses, low-temperature performance, and dielectric properties.
Key features
| Viscosity at 25 °C | 10 cSt (10 mPa·s) |
| Density at 25 °C | 0.93 g/cm³ |
| Flash point (open cup) | 162 °C |
| pour point | -65 °C |
| surface tension | 20.1 mN/m |
| Polymer type | Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), linear |

Frequently Asked Questions About SILISIL Silicone Oil 10 cSt
The most important answers regarding applications, features, and availability.
SILISIL Silicone Oil 10 cSt is a low-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane and is particularly suitable for lubricating elastomer and plastic parts, hydraulic systems at low temperatures, dielectric insulation in electrical engineering, and as a release agent in rubber and plastics processing.
The distinctive feature of SILISIL Silicone Oil 10 cSt is its combination of high lubricity, excellent dielectric properties, and a wide operating temperature range. In electrical engineering, low-viscosity PDMS oils often replace mineral insulating oils because they are more thermally stable and chemically inert. The exact specifications—in particular viscosity (10 cSt), density (0.93 g/cm³), flash point (162 °C), and pour point (-65 °C)—are also listed as product attributes and can be filtered in the shop.
Yes. SILISIL Silicone Oil 10 cSt is an excellent electrical insulator with a dielectric strength of approximately 14 kV/mm, a dielectric constant of approximately 2.6, and a specific volume resistivity in the order of 10¹⁵ Ω·cm. This makes the product particularly suitable for dielectric and electronic impregnation applications.
SILISIL Silicone Oil 10 cSt is typically available from our Swiss warehouse in 1 kg, 5 kg, 25 kg, 200 kg, and 1000 kg sizes. Other sizes and packaging options are available upon request to meet customer specifications—we provide a free sample for preliminary testing.
