Description
KORASILON®-paste, low viscosity, is a silicone-based laboratory paste intended for grinding joints, vacuum sealing and release applications across a service temperature range from −50 to +200 °C. The low-viscosity grade spreads readily on glass and metal surfaces, supporting smooth assembly of ground joints and reliable sealing under moderate vacuum. Density is approximately 0,97 g/cm³ and the flash point exceeds 250 °C, reflecting the thermal stability expected of silicone pastes in routine laboratory use. Supplied in a 35 g pack, the product is convenient for bench drawers and shared instrument rooms. From manufacturer Obermeier, KORASILON® low-viscosity paste is suited to glassware maintenance, stopcock and joint lubrication, and as a release aid where a soft, workable consistency is preferred. The compact unit size limits waste while providing enough material for repeated setups in teaching, research and quality-control laboratories that rely on dependable grinding and vacuum greases.

Questions about KORASILON®-paste, low viscosity, from -50 to +200 °C, 35 g
What is this article?
KORASILON®-paste, low viscosity, from -50 to +200 °C, 35 g is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Obermeier for laboratory use. It sits in Viscometers, inside Density & viscosity measurement, in Lab instruments.
A capillary viscometer times the flow of a liquid through a tube. A rotational viscometer twists a spindle in the liquid. Both need a stated temperature. Kinematic and dynamic viscosity are different numbers. The capillary size has to put the flow time in the range the method allows.
Density is mass divided by volume. A hydrometer floats at a depth that depends on the density of the liquid. A pycnometer is a vessel of known volume that is weighed full. Viscosity is the resistance to flow. A capillary viscometer times how long a volume takes to fall through a tube. Both measurements need a stated temperature, because liquids change density and viscosity as they warm. The units trace to the BIPM and to NIST.
