Overview
Element14™ PDMS 5-A is a linear polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of 5 cps. Element14™ PDMS fluids may remain liquid at various temperatures and pressures. Element14™ PDMS 5-A behaves differently from organic polymers under low and high pressures. Its viscosity and other fluid properties are not altered under these conditions. Element14™ PDMS 5-A polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) fluids have a long shelf life and are used in various applications, including cosmetic additives and hydraulic fluids.
