Use: Clearco Super Low Viscosity Pure Silicone Fluids are clear, colorless, and odorless linear polydimethylsiloxane fluids that range in viscosities from 0.65cSt (thinner than water) to 3cSt (centistokes). They are characterized by their low pour points, low temperature stability, low surface tensions (high spreadability), low viscosity-to-temperature coeffcients (viscosity changes little even at extremely low temperatures) and low viscosities (all close to water) ...see also Low Temperature Bath Fluids.
Due to their volatility (varying rates of evaporation), low surface tensions (high spreadability), and non-greasy feel, they are used as base fluids, carrying agents and wetting agents in a wide range of personal care products. Cosmetic applications include: room sprays, body sprays, antiperspirants, skin creams, skin lotions, suntan lotions, bath oils, hair care products etc. ...see also Cosmetic Grade Silicones
Clearco Super Low Viscosity Pure Silicone Fluids meet Federal Specification VV-D-1078 "Silicone as Damping Fluid" and are used in a wide range of military, industrial and avionic gauges, meters, instruments, and monitoring systems.
Clearco Super Low Viscosity Silicone Fluids are exempt from Federal VOC regulations, including California (CARB) and OTC regulations. They are HAP-free and will not contribute to ozone-depletion and global warming. In addition, they meet RoHS Compliancy.
Clearco Super Low Viscosity Silicone Fluids are California VOC Expempt and will not contribute to ozone-depletion and global warming. They are being uses as replacements for Non-VOC petroleum-bases solvents.
