Polidimetilsziloxánból

Polidimetilsziloxánból is the Hungarian term for polydimethylsiloxane. It is a synthetic polymer derived from silicon. Polydimethylsiloxane is a clear, odorless, and generally inert substance. Its chemical structure consists of repeating units of dimethylsiloxane. This structure gives it unique properties such as flexibility, thermal stability, and water repellency.

Polydimethylsiloxane finds widespread use in various industries. In the cosmetics and personal care sector, it is employed as a moisturizer, conditioner, and emollient in products like lotions, shampoos, and makeup. Its ability to create a smooth feel and provide a protective barrier is highly valued. In the medical field, it is used in some medical devices and implants due to its biocompatibility and inertness. Industrially, it functions as a lubricant, sealant, and anti-foaming agent in manufacturing processes. Its applications also extend to food processing, where it acts as an anti-foaming agent. The versatility of polydimethylsiloxane stems from its tunable viscosity, which can range from a thin liquid to a thick gel or rubbery solid, depending on the molecular weight and degree of cross-linking.
