Hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane, also known as D3, is a cyclic siloxane compound used in various applications. Some of Hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane benefits and applications include:
Hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane D3 can be used as a building block for synthesizing a wide range of silicone polymers, including elastomers, resins, and fluids, making it a valuable starting material for many industrial processes.
D3 is low-toxicity and generally considered safe for use in many applications. Handling D3 with care and appropriate safety precautions is a requirement.
D3 is stable, has a long shelf life under normal storage conditions, and is easy to store and transport, reducing the risk of waste or spoilage.
D3 can improve the performance of many products, including lubricants, coatings, and personal care products. It can enhance properties such as slipperiness, water resistance, and durability.
The white crystalline lens has a grass-like smell. Caution! It is possible to cause irritation to the eyes and skin. It is possible to induce inflammation of the respiratory and digestive tracts. Depressive symptoms may occur in the central nervous system. Moisture sensitive. It is used to make generic silicone polymers as well as particular organic silicon compounds such surface treatment, coupling, and crosslinking agents.
