Most commonly the silicone oil is polydimethylsiloxane pdms and the thickener is amorphous fumed silica using this formulation silicone grease is a translucent white viscous paste with exact properties dependent on the type and proportion of the components.
Silicone grease temperature range.
For instance silica has a dropping point of 2 732ºf 1 500ºc as one extreme example.
Pros this high temperature grease is plastic and rubber safe.
Super lube silicone lubricating grease with syncolon ptfe 3 oz tube.
Dupont molykote 55 o ring grease is silicone based so it can be used with most rubbers and plastics.
Grease paste could be separated into different performance range like different temperature range resistance thermal conductivity range food contact range optical range.

Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment leaving it to run dry.
Will not react with rubber or plastic.
Versilube silicone greases provide outstanding water repellence while hydrolytically stable with low toxicity in a wide range of temperatures from 70 f to 400 f 57 c to204 c.
Viscosity and thermally stable.
Reduces caliper noise and sticking.
However because grease performance depends on a combination of materials this does not represent the useful temperature range.
Typical properties silicone grease paste have good sealing performance and good lubrication performance.
Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range.
Maintaining extreme functionality is paramount for passenger safety in the aerospace industry so each.
The usefulness of the grease over time depends on the package not just the thickening system or the type of base oil.
