LF-H101L Low Hydrogen Silicone Fluid
Silfluo LF-H101L is a methylhydrogen-dimethylsiloxane copolymer (CAS 63148-57-2), a partially hydrogenated silicone fluid in which Si–H-bearing methylhydrogensiloxane units are interspersed with non-reactive dimethylsiloxane units along the backbone.
The dimethylsiloxane co-units dilute Si–H site density relative to LF-H101H (high-hydrogen PMHS), providing controlled, lower crosslink density upon cure — producing softer, more flexible elastomeric networks and reducing steric hindrance during hydrosilylation grafting of bulky organic side chains.
Viscosity (10–1,000 mPa·s) and hydrogen content (0.1–1.5 wt%) are independently customizable, allowing precise tuning of crosslink density, cure kinetics, and chain flexibility for specific formulation requirements.
