In the pharmaceutical field, ethyl silicone oil also plays an important role. It has good biocompatibility and strong chemical stability, and is widely used in the manufacturing of drugs and medical devices.


In pharmaceuticals, ethyl silicone oil can be used as a lubricant to improve the swallowing experience of tablets and capsules. For example, coating the surface of some large tablets with ethyl silicone oil can reduce friction with the esophagus and lower swallowing difficulty. In medical devices, ethyl silicone oil can be used to manufacture lubricating coatings for devices such as catheters and endoscopes. Its low friction coefficient characteristic can reduce the friction between the device and human tissue, and reduce patient discomfort.

In addition, ethyl silicone oil can also be used to manufacture medical sealants and waterproofing agents. For example, during surgical suturing, the use of ethyl silicone oil-based sealant can effectively seal the wound and prevent infection. With the continuous advancement of medical technology, the application of ethyl silicone oil in the pharmaceutical field will become more in-depth and extensive.
