1. Basic Overview and Structural Characteristics of IOTA-1291
IOTA-1291 water-soluble silicone oil is a professional polyether modified polymethylsiloxane polymer. With a unique molecular structure design, it combines hydrophilic organic groups and highly hydrophobic polysiloxane segments, breaking the application limitations of traditional silicone oils that are insoluble in water. As a special silicone surfactant, it possesses amphipathic properties, enabling compatibility with both water-based systems and conventional organic solvent systems. The product features high purity with an effective component content of 99.9%, ensuring stable performance in batch production and consistent quality for fine processing. It serves as a versatile functional auxiliary material widely applicable in textile finishing, daily cosmetics, leather processing, water-based coatings and adhesive industries.
2. Standard Physical and Chemical Indicators
Under the standard test condition of 25℃, IOTA-1291 appears as a colorless to light yellow transparent liquid with uniform texture and no mechanical impurities. Its density is 1.030g/cm³, and the viscosity ranges from 500 to 1500 C.S.T, meeting the rheological requirements of various production systems. The refractive index is controlled between 1.448 and 1.458, and the cloud point of 1% aqueous solution is 42℃, adapting to conventional processing temperature ranges. The product maintains a low surface tension of 23mN/m at 25℃, endowing it with excellent surface spreading and penetration capabilities. It also delivers stable antistatic, softening, smoothing and permeating effects. In terms of solubility, it can dissolve in ethanol and acetone, and be completely miscible with water in any proportion, eliminating the need for additional emulsifiers and simplifying the batching process.
3. Multi-industry Application Functions
In textile finishing, IOTA-1291 acts as an efficient fabric finishing agent. Fabrics treated with this product present a soft, smooth and comfortable hand feel with neat texture and improved dimensional stability, effectively reducing deformation and shrinkage during use and cleaning. In the cosmetic and personal care industry, it can form a uniform and breathable protective film on the skin surface, smoothing skin texture and keeping the skin soft. When applied in hair care products, it optimizes wet and dry combing performance and improves the overall use experience of daily care products.
For the leather industry, this product is a core component of high-grade leather slipping agents and finishing agents. It can uniformize the surface gloss of various leathers, soften the leather texture, and endow leather products with a smooth, bright and comfortable touch. In water-based coatings, acrylic adhesives and ink systems, it optimizes fluidity and spreadability of materials, improves the leveling performance of the system, and makes the product surface flat and glossy while reducing surface defects caused by construction.
4. Convenient Application Method
IOTA-1291 can be directly added to water-based systems without complex pre-treatment processes. The conventional dosage is 0.5% to 1.0% of the water-based system to meet basic modification needs. For special scenarios requiring anti-sticking and surface isolation effects, the dosage can be adjusted to 2%-4%. The flexible dosage adjustment adapts to standardized mass production and customized fine processing requirements of different industries.
