Silicone oil
At a glance
- Makes silicone more flexible
- Add up to 15%
- Diluent
Silicone oil is a diluent for silicone rubber. Silicone rubber can be used to cast candles, chocolate and chess pieces, among other things. Adding this silicone oil results in a more fluid product with a lower shore hardness after curing. The more oil you add, the more flexible the end result will be. A complex shape such as a chess piece can be cast in a more flexible silicone than a simpler shape such as a candle.
Dosage
- Every 2% of silicone oil reduces the shore hardness by about 1 point.
- Maximum dosage: 15% (adding too much can cause a sticky result).
- Always make a test to check if the dosage is sufficient and not too much and whether the end result is not sticky.
Directions for use
Mix the silicone oil into the A component, preferably mechanically, and allow it to rest to allow air bubbles to escape. Then add the B component and pour the silicone rubber.

Dosage indicates how much additive, filler or auxiliary material is added to a base product. It is often given as a percentage (%), grams per kilogram (g/kg) or a ratio between components. Check whether the percentage is based on the resin, hardener or total mixture weight. Adding too much or too little can change the product's properties.
- Maximum: 15%
-
The period for which an unopened product remains usable under the specified storage conditions. Check whether the period starts from the manufacturing date or another date. Shelf life may be shorter after opening, especially for products sensitive to air or moisture.
- At least 36 months

Viscosity measures how easily a liquid flows, or how thick it is. Dynamic viscosity is usually expressed in mPa·s (millipascal-seconds), sometimes in cP (centipoise); 1 mPa·s = 1 cP. A lower value usually means a more free-flowing liquid, while a higher value indicates a thicker product. Temperature and test method strongly affect the value. Note that mPa·s is different from MPa, which is used to express mechanical strength.
- 50 mPa·s
-
Flash point is the lowest temperature at which a liquid releases enough vapour, under specified test conditions, to ignite briefly in the presence of an ignition source. It is usually given in degrees Celsius (°C). Flash point is not the same as autoignition temperature and does not provide a complete assessment of the product's hazards.
- 260 °C
- Colour
- Transparant

Density describes the mass of a material per unit volume. Values may be given in g/cm³, kg/L or kg/m³; 1 g/cm³ equals 1 kg/L. For example, one litre of a liquid with a density of 1.2 kg/L weighs approximately 1.2 kg. Density helps convert between weight and volume, but it can vary with temperature.
- 0.97 kg/L
