Wacker Wacker® AK 12500 Silicone Fluid
Categories: Fluid; Polymer; Thermoset; Silicone

Material Notes: Product description: WACKER® AK 12 500 is a linear, non-reactive polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of approx. 12 500 mm²/s. Due to its chemical structure, WACKER® AK 12 500 has an outstanding property profile, which sets it apart from organic materials such as mineral oils.

Properties: WACKER® AK 12 500 is a clear, odorless and colorless liquid.

Special features:

  • minimal change in physical properties over a broad temperature range
  • excellent water-repellent properties
  • good dielectric properties
  • low surface tension and thus high surface activity
  • chemically highly unreactive
  • low solidifying point
  • high flash point
  • high heat resistance
  • good solubility in a wide range of solvents
Application:
  • release agent
  • lubricant
  • hydraulic fluid
  • antifoam agent
  • water-repellent agent
  • liquid dielectric for electrical and electronic equipment
  • polish additive
  • plastics additive
  • additive for textile and fiber auxiliaries
  • damping medium
For pharmaceutical applications, manufacturer recommends silicone fluids from the SILFAR® line. Silicone fluids from the BELSIL® line are available for the cosmetic sector. Whenever particularly high heat and shear resistance is required, manufacturer ecommends silicone fluids from the AK stab, AK visc and AKC product lines.
