| Test Item | Common Testing Methods | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Visual Inspection | Observe the sample's color, transparency, and presence of impurities or foreign matter with the naked eye to determine compliance with specified requirements. |
| Viscosity | Rotational Viscometer Method / Capillary Viscometer Method | Measure the kinematic or dynamic viscosity of PDMS fluid at a specified temperature to reflect its molecular weight and flow characteristics. |
| Refractive Index | Abbe Refractometer Method | Determine the refractive index of PDMS at a specific temperature to assist in assessing purity and compositional consistency. |
| Volatile Content (Volatile Matter) | Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) / Oven Drying Loss Method | Heat the sample at a specified temperature (e.g., 150°C) for a defined duration and measure the percentage of mass loss to evaluate low-molecular-weight volatile content. |
| Hydroxyl Content | Titration Method (e.g., Acetylation Method) | Acetylate the terminal hydroxyl groups via chemical reaction, then titrate the generated acid with a base to calculate hydroxyl content, reflecting the polymer's end-group structure. |
| Molecular Weight and Molecular Weight Distribution | Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) | Use GPC to determine number-average molecular weight (Mn), weight-average molecular weight (Mw), and polydispersity index (PDI) to assess polymer uniformity. |
| Infrared Functional Groups | Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) | Identify the main chain structure and impurities by analyzing characteristic infrared absorption peaks (e.g., Si–CH₃ at 1260 cm⁻¹, Si–O–Si at 1000–1100 cm⁻¹). |
| Heavy Metal Content | Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) or Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) | After sample digestion, measure residual levels of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium to ensure compliance with safety standards (e.g., for cosmetics or medical devices). |
| pH Value (Aqueous Extract) | pH Meter Method | Mix PDMS with water, shake vigorously, allow to separate into layers, then measure the pH of the aqueous phase to assess residual acidic or alkaline impurities. |
| Non-Volatile Content | Residue on Evaporation Method | Evaporate solvents (if present) from a weighed sample under specified conditions and weigh the residual residue to calculate the percentage of non-volatile matter. |
| Cyclomethicone Content (D3–D6, etc.) | Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) | Separate and quantify cyclic oligomers (e.g., D4, D5), particularly critical to control in cosmetic and food-grade PDMS applications. |
