Jiujiang Deep-Sea Technology Water-Soluble Silicone Oil
The full name should be polyether-modified water-soluble silicone oil. It is a unique amphiphilic organosilicon compound formed by chemically synthesizing hydrophilic polyether segments (such as copolymers of ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO)) onto the hydrophobic polysiloxane backbone.
In simple terms, it can be imagined as a "hybrid" molecule: A hydrophobic silicone oil backbone + hydrophilic polyether arms = polyether-modified silicone oil matrix (backbone): polysiloxane (-Si-O-Si-), providing the inherent smoothness, softness, low surface tension, and resistance to high and low temperatures of silicone oil. Side chains (arms): polyethers (-CH2-CH2-O-, -CH2-CH(CH3)-O-), providing water solubility, self-emulsification, and compatibility with various systems.
Advantages:
1. Excellent compatibility: Infinitely miscible with water and various polar systems, resulting in a transparent solution.
2. High stability: A true solution, resistant to storage, and impervious to freezing and heat.
3. Versatile functions: Possesses surface-active properties such as lubrication, emulsification, defoaming, and foam stabilization.
4. Environmentally friendly and safe: Uses water as a diluent, non-toxic and non-flammable.
Applications:
Polyurethane foam stabilizer: A key additive in the manufacture of sponges and foams, resulting in uniform and fine cell structure.
Personal care products: Used in shampoos and skincare products, providing a refreshing and non-greasy feel.
Textile finishing agent: Gives fabrics a soft, moisture-wicking, and hydrophilic feel.
Agricultural spraying adjuvants: Enhance the spreading and adhesion of pesticides on leaves.
Industrial adjuvants: Used as defoamers and leveling agents in coatings, inks, wastewater treatment, and other fields.
