XIAMETER(TM) PMX-200 Silicone Fluid 12,500 cSt is a high-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane polymer manufactured to yield essentially linear polymers in a wide range of viscosities. The viscosities generally used in formulating polishes are in the range of 100 to 30,000 cSt. It is preferable to use a blend of a low-viscosity fluid and a high-viscosity fluid (e.g. 3 parts XIAMETER(TM) PMX- 200 Silicone Fluid 100 cSt and 1 part XIAMETER(TM) PMX-200 Silicone Fluid 12,500 cSt) to obtain optimum results in terms of ease of application and depth of gloss. The low-viscosity silicone fluid acts as a lubricant to make polish application and rubout easier, whereas the high-viscosity silicone fluid produces a greater depth of gloss. Since these polymers are inherently water-repellent, they will cause water to bead up on a treated surface rather than penetrate the polish film.

Dynasylan® VTMO is a bifunctional organosilane, combines a reactive vinyl group and a hydrolyzable inorganic trimethoxysilyl group. Its versatile reactivity enables chemical bonding to both inorganic materials (e.g., glass, metals, fillers) and organic polymers (such as thermosets, thermoplastics, elastomers). Functioning as a crosslinking agent, adhesion promoter, and surface modifier, Dynasylan® VTMO offers diverse applications.
