Storage Condition: Should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated place, and avoid exposure to humidity. Should be stored in its original containers and used up as soon as possible after opening. After the container is opened, it should be sealed to prevent water vapor from entering to produce hydrolysis. When stored in a strictly sealed and unopened container, it has a shelf life of 12months.
Hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) (CAS: 107-46-0) is easily deliquescent, flammable, and has the risk of causing combustion when exposed to high heat, open flame, and strong oxidizing agents. Among all the silicone oils, Hexamethyldisiloxane possesses the lowest viscosity, the lowest surface tension, the fastest evaporation and the highest compressibility. Hexamethyldisiloxane is used as a capping agent, a head sealing agent, a cleaning agent and a film release agent, and is mainly used as an intermediate in the production of organic chemicals and pharmaceutical chemicals. Can be used as a hydrophobic agent, used for surface treatment of fiber fabric, insulation and moisture proof of radio parts. Can be used as an important raw material for the preparation of silicone oils, silicone rubbers and pharmaceutical synthesis; Can be used as an analytical reagent, Gas chromatographic stationary liquid and hydrophobic agent; Can be used as a surface modifier for inorganic fillers or powders surface treatment; Can be used as a base fluid for personal care products and cosmetics with excellent spreading and volatility properties. It is used for instrumentation circulating coolant and manufacturing of various silicone products for surface treatment of fiber fabrics and insulation of radio parts. Hexamethyldisiloxane can be used as silylating agent for carboxylic acids, and alcohols; used in preparation of aroyl chlorides; precursor for a variety of trimethylsilyl derivatives. Hexamethyldisiloxane has been used as an inexpensive starting material for the preparation of numerous synthetically useful trimethylsilyl derivatives.
