Application
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) belongs to a group of polymeric organosilicon compounds that are commonly referred to as silicones. PDMS is the most widely used silicon-based organic polymer and is particularly known for its unusual rheological (or flow) properties. PDMS is optically clear and in general inert non-toxic and non-flammable. It is also called dimethicone and is one of several types of silicone oil (polymerized siloxane). Its applications range from contact lenses and medical devices to elastomers it is also present in shampoos (as dimethicone makes hair shiny and slippery) food (antifoaming agent) caulking lubricants kinetic sand and heat-resistant tiles.

Purpose
For R&D use onlynot for drug household or other uses.
