Silicone Softeners



Definition of silicone fabric softener

Softener is a compound of organic polysiloxane and polymer, which is suitable for soft finishing of natural fibers such as cotton, wool, silk, hemp and human hair.

Silicone textile finishing auxiliaries have a wide application in textile finishing. The auxiliary can not only deal with natural fabrics, but also deal with polyester, nylon and other synthetic fibers. After treatment, fabric is anti-wrinkle, anti-fouling, anti-static, anti-pilling and plump, soft, elastic and glossy, with a smooth, cool and strong style. silicone finishing agent can also improve the strength of fiber and reduce abrasion. Silicone softeners for textiles is a promising fabric softener, which is also an important additives to improve product quality and add value in textile dyeing and finishing processing.



Silicone Softening Agent features

Soluble in water, aqueous solution is very stable and in good compatibility;

The fabric feels soft, smooth and full, and has good drape and puffiness;

Excellent hygroscopicity and good permeability

Moisture absorption and antistatic property;

It has good resilience and wrinkle resistance

Stable working fluid, no demulsification, no floating oil;

Not easy to get yellowing in high temperature.

Silicone Softeners Classification



① Hydroxy silicone oil

② Amino Silicone oil

③ Epoxy silicone softener chemistry

④ Hydrophilic silicone softeners



Among the various kinds of fabric softeners, silicone auxiliaries are becoming more and more important due to their unique surface properties and excellent softening properties.



Current situation of silicone softener for textiles



Most of the domestic fabrics use silicone auxiliaries which is hydrophobic, which makes the wearer stuffy and it is difficult to wash. Many fabric products often appear the phenomenon of bleaching oil.



The traditional hydrophilic polyether silicone oil has better hydrophilic and water-solubility, but with poor softness and durability.



Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop new hydrophilic softener used in textile with fine softness and durability.

The General Steps for Examining the Quality of The Appearance of Textile

The contents for examining To examine the quality of the appearance of textile starts from the accuracy of colors The inspection process is as follows: to test the accuracy of color; raw materials, weaving defects, defect inspection and defect treatment before dyeing defect and finishing defects, in accordance with the standard requirements to determine whether to cut off or drop size. When the color accuracy test is in dispute, the dispute can be settled down according to the measurement results of the electronic color matching system. 1) Material defects The raw materials have obvious defects like big belly yarn evenness is not uniform, there are too many joints, yarn, fiber, silk, specific bad Spandex Covered Yarn Quality, blended yarn uneven mixing and so on, which are likely to cause the fabric etc.. 2) Weaving defects Weaving defects come from many aspects, such as equipment itself, raw materials, environment, temperature and humidity, operator technical level, fabric structu...
