LS-6345 Methylphenylcyclosiloxane
CAS NO.: 546-45-2 & 77-63-4 & 34239-75-3
Silfluo LS-6345 is a mixed cyclic methylphenylsiloxane oligomer, comprising a blend of tricyclic (D3MePh), tetracyclic (D4MePh), and pentacyclic (D5MePh) forms.
Each ring unit contains alternating methyl and phenyl substituents on the Si–O backbone.
The methyl groups contribute low-temperature flexibility; the phenyl groups raise refractive index, thermal stability, and radiation resistance relative to dimethylcyclosiloxane analogs.
Used as monomer for ring-opening polymerization of phenyl silicone rubbers (PVMQ) and fluids, and as functional ingredient in personal care and optical resin formulations.
