Is dimethyl silicone oil (polydimethylsiloxane, PDMS) used in magnesium powder production?
Dimethyl silicone oil (polydimethylsiloxane, PDMS) is indeed widely used in magnesium powder production, mainly relying on its low surface tension, hydrophobicity, chemical stability and lubricity. The following is an analysis based on specific application scenarios, mechanism of action and practical cases:
