Overview
Element14™ PDMS 1000 is a linear polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of 1,000 centipoise (cps). Element14™ PDMS fluids can stay in liquid form over a wide range of temperatures and pressures. Accordingly, they are used in applications that require fluid properties in harsh environments. In mechanically demanding applications, they provide excellent shear stability and good lubrication and slip.
