Application of Silicone Surfactant

Hits: 884 img

1. Application in daily chemical products
Because silicone surfactants have many advantages such as non-toxic, no skin irritation, anti-oxidation, ultraviolet protection, good biocompatibility, excellent waterproof and breathable performance, etc., they are used in cosmetics, shampoo and hair care products, creams, etc. There is a certain degree of application in such products and products. Due to its low surface tension and suitable viscosity, silicone surfactants are conducive to the spread of cosmetics on the skin and hair surface, can improve the moisturizing and retention of cosmetics on the skin, and can maintain the normal breathability of the skin. Hair is shiny, easy to comb, smooth and neat, antistatic and soft.

2. Application in the textile industry
Silicone surfactants have antistatic properties, flexibility, and good sterilization and disinfection capabilities, and can give fibers a good softening effect. Cationic silicone surfactants are mainly used as antistatic agents and softeners in the textile industry. Quaternary ammonium salt cationic silicone surfactants are used in the sanitary finishing of fiber products. They have good bactericidal and anti-mildew effects. And safe and durable.

3. Application in pesticides
In pesticide processing, adding 0.05%-0.1% (mass fraction) of silicone surfactants as additives can optimize the physical properties and chemical stability of the formulation, increase the variety of formulations, and expand the scope of application. The epidermis of plant leaves and stems often has anti-wetting components or structures, and they are often negatively charged, which repels pesticide liquids. The addition of silicone surfactants can promote the smooth attachment of pesticide preparations on plants. Maintaining, spreading and penetrating play a key role in improving the efficacy of the drug. Silicone surfactants can reduce the surface tension, make water penetrate into the insect trachea, make it lethal, and act as an insecticide additive.

4. Application in food and medicine
Silicone defoamer is formulated with modified polysiloxane as the main component and added with a variety of non-ionic surfactants. It has excellent defoaming performance, small dosage, easy to use, non-toxic, and non-toxic. Corrosive, it has a good defoaming and anti-foaming effect on the foam produced in the production of MSG, soybean products and antibiotics.

5. Application in leather chemicals
Silicone surfactants can mainly be used as fatliquors and softeners in leather because of their good lubricating properties and waterproof properties. The organosilicon fatliquor prepared by graft copolymerization with grease solves the problem of easy migration of silicon-containing surfactants, reduces the amount of fatliquor and reduces the cost. The leather fiber impregnated with silicone surfactant has good dispersion and lubricating properties, and the leather is soft. It is especially suitable for clothing leather and shoe upper leather, and can also be used for fur manufacturing. The amino polyether co-modified silicone surfactant is used as a fatliquor to achieve a satisfactory degree of softness and hydrophilicity. In addition, it can also be used as a finishing agent, waterproofing agent, and enzyme preparation to make leather soft, Bright and oily.

 6. Application in mechanical processing
In the process of production, use and maintenance of metal products, it is necessary to clean all kinds of dirt attached to the surface (such as metal chips, cutting fluid, abrasives and various greases, dust, acid, alkali, salt, etc. during processing) Electrolytes and hand sweat, etc.) to ensure the internal and surface quality of the product and prolong the service life. Silicone surfactant cleaning agent has good cleaning performance and strong detergency. It can not only remove oil stains on metal surfaces, but also clean hand sweat, inorganic salts and other dirt. In addition, it is non-flammable, non-toxic, and safe to use. As well as good corrosion and anti-corrosion ability, it can also save energy and reduce environmental pollution, and is suitable for mechanized automatic cleaning.

7. Application in the plastic industry
Silicone surfactant plays an important role in the production process of polyurethane foam, such as system dispersion, bubble growth, bubble stabilization, and air chamber opening. It is a good foam stabilizer for polyurethane foam. Using its surface activity, it can produce polyurethane soft foam, rigid foam, semi-rigid foam and high resilience foam. In addition, as a flame-retardant silicone foam stabilizer, the application of polyurethane foam is also increasing.
