Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000, also called Dimethicone 1000 or dimethylpolysiloxane 1000 centistokes, is a silicone polymer with various uses, from cosmetics to industrial lubrication.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 has been used as a surface-active agent to decrease surface tension in various solutions owing to its hydrophobicity. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) films are primarily used as protective films from corrosion as they form very stable bonds on surfaces, and a silica network enhances the properties of deposited surfaces.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 viscosity is a linear poly(dimethylsiloxane), colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and non-irritating. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 is a linear polydimethylsiloxane with a viscosity of 1000 centipoise (cps). 

PDMS 1000 is a colorless transparent liquid of polymethylsiloxane, also known as Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 is a surfactant that is essentially non-toxic and has excellent dielectric properties. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 contains organic methyl groups and inorganic siloxane bonds, providing excellent chemical and thermal stability.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 belongs to a group of polymeric organosilicon compounds called silicones and is the most widely used silicon-based organic polymer. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 is mainly known for its unusual rheological or flow properties. 

PDMS is viscoelastic, meaning that at long flow times (or high temperatures), it acts like a viscous liquid, similar to honey. 

However, at short flow times (or low temperatures) it acts like an elastic solid, similar to rubber.

It is optically clear and inert, non-toxic, and non-flammable. It is one of several types of silicone oil (polymerized siloxane). 

Applications of Polydimethylsiloxane 1000

Component of defoamers

Ingredient in water-repellent coatings

Plasticizers in silicone sealants

Stamp resin in the procedure of soft-lithography

Lubricant in condoms

A component in silicone grease

A component in heat-transfer fluids

A component in mold-release agents

Sorbent for the analysis of head-space

Applications: 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 is widely used as a lubricant, mechanical fluid, mold release agent, anti-foam agent, polish, wetting agent, and insulating and damping fluid. Dimethicone 1000 is used in various industries, such as food, personal care, metal die casting, plastics, rubbers, electronics, paints, and coatings. 

Synonyms of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS): Dimethicone 1000 cSt, Dimethicone 1000 cs, PDMS 1000, dimethylpolysiloxane 1000, Polydimethylsiloxane 1000, poly(dimethylsiloxane) 1000, E900

Dimethicone 1000 Silicone fluid can stay liquid over various temperatures and pressures. 

As a result, Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 is used in applications that require fluid properties in harsh environments. 

Polydimethylsiloxane 1000 can stay liquid at conditions that cause organic polymers to become greases, waxes, or solids. 

Because the viscosity of Polydimethylsiloxane 1000 changes very little with temperature, pressure, mechanical stress, or chemical exposure, it can excel in applications requiring fluid properties in harsh environments. 

With relatively stable viscosity and other excellent properties, Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 is a strong candidate to consider for use in a wide range of applications:

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 typically provides excellent shear stability and lubrication or slip in mechanically demanding applications such as hydraulics and damping.

Because of its unusually low interfacial tension, Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 is excellent for applications requiring high surface activity and significant spreading or penetration. Mold releases, polishes, and cosmetics can benefit from these characteristics.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 can be considered for liquid dielectrics; measurements have revealed that the dielectric strength, volume resistivity, dielectric constant, and dissipation factor are little affected by temperatures over a wide range.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 provides excellent shear stability and good lubrication or slip in mechanically demanding applications.

For a high affinity with the skin, Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 can be used in skin care products to obtain a silk-like smooth feel. 

As a carrier, Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 can provide a better silky feel and enhance the long-lasting performance of other active ingredients on the skin.

Its functions (INCI)

Antifoaming: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 removes foam during manufacturing / reduces foam formation in liquid-finished products

Emollient: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 softens and smoothes the skin

Skin conditioning: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 maintains the skin in good condition

Skin protecting: Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 helps to avoid the harmful effects of external factors on the skin

Dimethicone 1000 is a medium-thick viscosity that offers excellent barrier properties when used in skin protectant formulations. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000, included in even small amounts, is one of the best ingredients to provide a hydrophobic barrier to the skin. It can assist in slowing the skin’s moisture loss to improve hydration and moisture.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 adds slip and glide, reducing tackiness. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 viscosity offers conditioning properties when used in hair and skin care applications.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 viscosity, oil-soluble silicone is an excellent cosmetic ingredient for skin care and hair care applications with various uses. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 viscosity offers natural lubrication, adding more slip and glide to cosmetics, reducing tackiness on the skin and a sticky feeling in hair, improving hair’s softness, and reducing frizziness even in high humidity. 

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 viscosity also helps to create a protective barrier on the skin, helping to protect it from harsh outside elements such as heat, sun damage, cold winds, and things such as free radicals. 

This silicone possesses natural emolliency, so it is an excellent addition to cosmetics such as conditioners, lotions, moisturizers, and other leave-on and rinse-off applications. 

With a thicker viscosity, Dimethicone 1000 creates a more substantial protective barrier than ingredients such as Dimethicone 100 or 350.

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) 1000 viscosity is mainly known for its unusual rheological (or flow) properties. 

Polydimethylsiloxane 1000 is optically clear and generally inert, non-toxic, and non-flammable. 

Polydimethylsiloxane 1000 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 it makes hair shiny and slippery), food (antifoaming agent), caulk, lubricants, and heat-resistant tiles.
