Re: Brake Fluids - Compressability?

[Gonaj@aol.com]

Any student of physics knows that liquids do not compress.
Fluids do have the ability to become mixed with gases which are compressible. 
 The silicon fluid will tend to hold small amounts of gasses in solution but 
as they don't bubble they are difficult to completely remove causing the 
appearance that the silicon fluid is compressing.  It is really the dissolved 
gas.  In DOT 3 & 4 fluids the gasses form bubbles and can be removed.
