Synonyms:Polyether modified silicone fluid,Polyether silicone oil,Polyether modified polysiloxane,Silicone polyether,Water sol-uble silicone oil.
Description
Colorless or light yellow transparent liquid.
Characteristics
Polyether modified silicone oil is a unique performance modified sil-icone oil made by grafting or block copolymerization of polyether and dimethyl siloxane. In addition to the characteristics of high bond energy, soft molecular chains, and low surface tension of organic silicon polymer compounds, it also has chemical activity brought by specific functional groups. Polyether modified silicone oil is a kind of water-soluble silicone oil.
Polyether modified silicone oil has good lubricity, low surface ten-sion, excellent softness and anti-static properties. It is non-toxic, non-corrosive and environmentally friendly, and is widely used in textiles, coatings, cosmetics and auxiliary additives.
Typical Properties
Polyether Modified Silicone Oil Use
Textile and clothing industries:Polyether modified silicone oil is applied in the textile industry to endow fabrics with the following excellent properties,such as softness, hydrophilicity, anti-static, anti-shrinkage, elasticity, etc. Polyether modified silicone oil can also be used for synthetic fiber fabrics such as polyester and nylon, natural fiber fabrics such as cotton and linen, protein fiber fabrics such as wool and silk, blended fabrics such as cotton/polyester and wool/polyester,processing silk, yarn, and sewing thread. The pro-cessed fibers and silk have good luster, excellent slippage, and sew-ing properties.
Daily chemical industry:Polyether modified silicone oil can be used in daily chemical products, such as various cosmetic pastes, emul-sions, and shampoos, to keep hair loose, soft, shiny and easy to comb.
Plastic industry:Polyether modified silicone oil is added as an in-ternal additive to plastics for the production of drip free film greenhouses, anti-fog and improved light transmittance.
Leather industry:Polyether modified silicone oil is the main compo-nent of advanced leather lubricants and finishing agents. It endows various natural leather surfaces with properties such as smoothness, brightness, softness and comfortable hand feel.
Paint industry:Polyether modified silicone oil is an excellent addi-tive for paint, which can improve the leveling of paint and make the coating smooth and shiny.
Polyurethane industry:Polyether modified silicone oil is a leveling agent for polyurethane slurry and a foaming agent for rigid polyure-thane systems, which makes the foam pores fine and uniform.
Other industries:Polyether modified silicone oil is a key raw mate-rial for self-emulsifying defoamers and delayed coking defoamers in the refining industry. It can also be used as a release agent for resin systems, etc.
