Methyl fluorosilicone oil has recently completed systemic innovation in the fields of ultra-precision manufacturing and long-life lubrication technology. Through in-depth design of its molecular chain structure, this material has achieved comprehensive breakthroughs in ultra-wide temperature range lubrication stability, extreme media compatibility, and environmental friendliness, becoming a key foundational material supporting the advancement of high-end equipment in semiconductor manufacturing, aerospace, and high-speed rail transportation toward new-generation technology platforms.
Research shows that new-generation methyl fluorosilicone oil achieves a viscosity index exceeding 350 within a temperature range of -70℃ to 300℃, with high-temperature evaporation loss further reduced by 40% compared to the previous generation. In extreme environments such as strongly oxidizing media (e.g., fuming nitric acid) and ultra-high vacuum (<10⁻⁷ Pa), its lubricating film retention rate remains above 95%. In the core semiconductor manufacturing process of Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines, as the sole designated lubricant for vacuum motion mechanisms and precision bearings, its exceptional cleanliness and stability are among the core factors ensuring the yield of 7nm and below chip processes.
In the commercial aerospace sector, methyl fluorosilicone oil has been successfully applied in turbopump bearing systems for reusable rocket engines. It not only withstands the harsh conditions of liquid oxygen-kerosene oxygen-rich combustion environments but also maintains stable performance after multiple recovery and reuse cycles, reducing lubrication cost per launch by up to 70%. In the levitation, guidance, and traction systems of 600 km/h high-speed maglev trains, its long-life lubrication solution extends the maintenance interval for critical components from the conventional 400,000 kilometers to over 1.5 million kilometers.
Particularly important is that methyl fluorosilicone oil is leading lubrication technology toward “zero emission” and “intelligent” evolution. The self-healing intelligent lubrication system developed based on it enables online repair of wear sites through microcapsule technology, extending the service life of critical equipment by an additional 50%. Its full-lifecycle biodegradable products have been validated in multi-megawatt offshore wind turbine gearboxes, achieving harmony between lubrication and the ecological environment. Experts assert that methyl fluorosilicone oil has evolved from a functional material into a strategic platform technology driving high-end equipment toward ultimate reliability, extended lifespan, and green operation.
