In the vast realm of chemical materials, water - soluble silicone oil IOTA - 1291 shines like a bright star. With its unique structure and a wide range of applications, it has gradually attracted the attention of many industries. It is a polyether - modified polydimethylsiloxane, a polymer formed by the clever combination of hydrophilic organic compounds and hydrophobic polysiloxanes, which endows it with distinct characteristics.
As a polyether - modified special organic silicon surfactant, IOTA - 1291 boasts several impressive properties. It has a low surface tension, enabling it to spread easily on various interfaces. Its excellent hydrophilicity allows it to be completely miscible with water in any proportion and also soluble in common solvents such as ethanol and acetone. Moreover, it exhibits good antistatic, soft, smooth, and breathable properties. After treating fabrics with it, the fabrics become soft, smooth, and comfortable to the touch, just like being wrapped in a layer of comfort. From the perspective of physical and chemical data, it appears as a colorless to light - yellow transparent liquid. Its specific gravity, viscosity, refractive index, and other indicators are within appropriate ranges. The cloud point and surface tension characteristics also provide strong support for its applications in different fields.
In the field of fabric finishing, IOTA - 1291 is a highly capable assistant. Fabrics treated with it are not only soft and smooth but also have good stiffness and dimensional stability, greatly enhancing the quality and added value of the fabrics. In the personal care industry, its good water solubility and surface activity enable it to form a uniform and breathable protective film on the skin surface, providing the skin with excellent dry and wet combability and offering a more comfortable skincare experience. In the leather industry, it is a major component of leather slip agents and coating agents, giving various leather surfaces a smooth, shiny, and soft feel, showcasing the unique charm of leather. In the areas of water - based coatings, acrylic adhesives, and inks, it can improve the fluidity of the systems, making the product surfaces flat and shiny and enhancing the overall quality of the products.
