How to Distinguish Between True and False Silicone Powder?
Understanding the Market
The silicone powder market is mixed, with varying prices and quality. Unscrupulous manufacturers sometimes produce fake silicone powder to deceive customers. Here’s how to identify genuine silicone powder.
Characteristics of Genuine Silicone Powder
Genuine silicone powder is a high-temperature resistant polymer lubricant with flame-retardant properties. It is made from expensive polymer raw materials. Fake silicone powder often includes low molecular lubricants to cut costs, leading to migration and precipitation at high temperatures.
Testing Methods
To test the authenticity, obtain a sample from the manufacturer. Place the sample in a beaker and heat it with an alcohol lamp. If the silicone powder melts, it likely contains additives like sulfuric amide, acid amide, or other fat lubricants, indicating it is fake.
Conclusion
By following these steps, you can effectively distinguish between true and false silicone powder. Always verify the quality to ensure optimal performance and reliability.
