Amino silicone oil emulsion is a water-based emulsion with amino-modified silicone oil as the main component. The silicone oil is dispersed in water through emulsification technology to form a stable system. Its core is to introduce amino (-NH₂) functional groups into the silicone oil molecular chain, giving the material unique reactivity and adsorption capacity.
Amino silicone oil emulsion is a widely used functional material. The following are its main application areas and performance characteristics:
Main application areas 01
Textile industry
Softener: used for finishing of cotton, wool, silk and other fibers, significantly improving the softness, smoothness and fullness of fabrics.
Antistatic treatment: amino silicone oil can be adsorbed on the fiber surface to reduce static electricity generated by friction, especially suitable for synthetic fibers.
Enhance durability: form a protective film to improve the washability and wrinkle resistance of fabrics.
Leather processing
Softness and gloss: Improve the feel of leather, increase surface gloss, and maintain breathability.
Waterproof and antifouling: Some modified products can give leather certain waterproof and oil-proof properties.
Papermaking Industry
Surface treatment: used for paper coating to improve smoothness, printability and water resistance.
Strengthening: amino silicone oil can penetrate the fiber to improve the wet strength and flexibility of paper.
Cosmetics and Personal Care
Hair care products: As an ingredient in conditioners and hair masks, it repairs hair scales and makes hair smooth and easy to comb.
Skin care products: Added to lotions and creams, it enhances moisturizing and ductility and improves skin feel.
Other fields
Defoamers: used for foam control in industrial processes (such as papermaking, coatings).
Mold release agents: reduce mold adhesion in rubber and plastic processing.
Outstanding performance features 02
Excellent softness and smoothness
Amino silicone oil molecules can evenly cover the surface of fibers or substrates, reduce the friction coefficient, and give the product a delicate touch.
Antistatic property
Amino groups can absorb moisture in the air to form a conductive layer and reduce static electricity accumulation.
Film-forming and adhesion
Form a transparent, flexible film on the surface of the substrate to enhance protective properties (such as anti-wear and anti-pollution).
Breathability
The molecular structure of silicone allows gas and moisture to pass through, preventing the material from getting stuffy or mildewed.
Chemical resistance and weather resistance
It has a certain resistance to acid, alkali, and ultraviolet rays, and is suitable for long-term use.
Compatibility
It can be compounded with a variety of surfactants and resins to meet different process requirements.
Summary 03
Due to its versatility, amino silicone emulsion plays a key role in the fields of textiles, leather, papermaking and cosmetics. Its core advantage lies in improving the touch, protection and processing performance of materials while taking into account environmental protection and stability.
