Synopsis : The sorption of gases in “Silicone-grease” and “Silicone-oil” (D.C.) (which was for vacuum technique use) was studied experimentally.
The result indicated that so much water vapor was absorbed into “Silicone-grease”, while little into “Silicone-oil”.However, H2, N2, Co, Co2 and etc. were not entirely absorbed into both Silicone-grease and oil.
These were, at the same time, recognized by means of electron microscope, spectrophotometer, and thermo balance.
Considering from these results we made, for trial, the “Silicone-oil rotary manometer”, which had a very good efficiency.
