Technical Bulletin
DESCRIPTION:
Silicomines (Silicon+Amino) is a reactive amino functionalized silicone fluid developed for use as a base in formulating textile softeners and lubricants. It is a cost effective amino silicone that imparts a typical soft amino hand.
USES AND APPLICATIONS :
Silicomines (Silicon+Amino) is designed as a base fluid for formulating both amino micro and macro emulsions that are used as textile softeners in fabric finishing processes. It may be used as a stand alone or in conjunction with organic softeners. Silicomines (Silicon+Amino) can be emulsified using a conventional mixer or homo-mixer to get a clear emulsion.
Typical fabrics to be softened include cellulose, man-made fibres and their blends, including both woven as well as knitted fabrics.
