NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to announce the availability of an advanced Hydrophilic Stiff Smooth Silicone Softener, specifically formulated for the demanding requirements of modern textile post-processing. This innovative liquid auxiliary agent is designed to impart a unique combination of properties to a wide range of fabrics, including cotton, synthetic fibers, viscose fibers, and their blends, elevating their performance and hand feel.
In the competitive textile market, achieving the perfect fabric finish is paramount. Consumers seek textiles that are not only visually appealing but also offer superior comfort, durability, and functional attributes. Our new silicone softener addresses these needs by providing a distinct stiff, smooth, and exquisite hand feeling, coupled with crucial performance characteristics like excellent stiffness and elasticity. Unlike traditional softeners that might compromise fabric body for softness, this product expertly balances these attributes to deliver a desirable finish.
One of the standout features of this formulation is its exceptional hydrophilicity, which is instant upon application. Hydrophilicity is vital for textiles, particularly apparel, as it relates directly to moisture management – the fabric's ability to absorb and wick away sweat, enhancing wearer comfort. Achieving stable and instant hydrophilicity with silicone-based products can be challenging, making this a significant technical achievement. The block silicone oil composition is key to this performance, ensuring durable effects and consistent quality.
Furthermore, maintaining the original color integrity of treated fabrics is critical. Our silicone softener demonstrates extremely low heat yellowing, rated Grade 5, and very low phenolic yellowing, rated Grade 4~5. These high ratings indicate minimal discoloration risk during high-temperature processing or upon exposure to phenolic compounds often found in packaging materials, preserving the fabric's aesthetic appeal over time.
From a technical perspective, the product presents as a turbid fluid with a weak cationic ionicity, making it compatible with many common textile finishing agents (though compatibility tests are always recommended). It has a pH value of approximately 6.3 ±0.5 (in 1% aqueous solution) and is readily soluble in water, simplifying bath preparation. With an active content of around 39.42%, it offers high efficacy at recommended dosages.
Application is typically recommended via the padding process, a widely used and efficient method in textile finishing lines. The recommended dosage range is 30 to 80 grams per liter, depending on the desired effect and specific fabric type. Optimal setting conditions are between 150ºC and 180ºC for 50 to 60 seconds. As with all textile auxiliaries, process parameters should be fine-tuned based on preliminary sample testing to achieve the best results for each specific application and fabric composition.
Proper handling and storage are essential to maintain product quality. It is crucial not to expose the product to air for extended periods and to cover containers promptly after use. Storage in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight is advised to ensure stability and longevity.
