The tactile qualities of textiles and leather are paramount to their appeal and functionality. Hydroxy Terminated Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), identified by CAS number 70131-67-8, is a highly effective finishing agent that imparts superior softness and a smooth hand feel to a wide range of fabrics and leather goods. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. supplies this premium silicone fluid, essential for advanced textile and leather processing.

As a specialized textile auxiliary agent, PDMS works by coating the fibers, providing lubrication and reducing friction between them. This lubrication results in a significantly softer feel, improved drape, and enhanced overall handle. For cottons, synthetics, and blends, PDMS treatment can transform a coarse fabric into one with a luxurious, silken touch. This makes it particularly valuable for apparel, home furnishings, and high-end leather goods where consumer comfort and perceived quality are key selling points.

The application of PDMS as a finishing agent is versatile. It can be applied through various textile finishing techniques, such as padding, exhaustion, or spraying, and is compatible with both exhaust and continuous processes. The hydroxyl termination of the PDMS molecule can also allow for it to become covalently bonded to certain substrates under specific conditions, providing a more durable and wash-resistant softening effect compared to non-reactive finishes. This aspect is crucial for maintaining the fabric’s desirable properties through multiple laundering cycles.

In addition to softening, PDMS can also improve the sewability of fabrics and leather by reducing friction during industrial sewing processes. This contributes to faster production speeds and fewer skipped stitches or thread breakage. The versatility extends to leather finishing, where PDMS can help maintain the natural softness and suppleness of the material, preventing it from becoming stiff or brittle over time.
