Product Code：SP8016
Product Name：OCTAMETHYLCYCLOTETRASILOXANE
Product Introduction：
Octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4) is a volatile cyclic siloxane composed of alternating silicon-oxygen atoms with methyl substituents. It serves as a key monomer and intermediate in the production of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and other silicone polymers. This colorless, low-viscosity liquid is widely used in sealants, lubricants, personal care products, and as a solvent carrier.
