In the dynamic world of textile manufacturing, achieving the desired feel and finish for fabrics is paramount to market success. Consumers increasingly demand textiles that are not only visually appealing but also possess a luxurious, comfortable touch. This is where advanced textile auxiliaries, such as silicone softeners, play a crucial role. Among these, a new generation of products is emerging, offering enhanced performance and stability.

We are pleased to highlight a notable development in this area: Sylic® CY-402G-4, a versatile and high-performing smooth soft silicone oil emulsion. This product is specifically formulated as a linear multi-block copolymer modified silicone softener, designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern textile finishing processes.

The primary advantage of Sylic CY-402G-4 lies in its exceptional ability to endow fabrics with a superior hand feeling characterized by outstanding smoothness and softness. For specific fabric types like velvet, it also imparts a desirable fluffy effect, enhancing tactile appeal and overall fabric quality. This makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

Applicable to various common textile materials, including polyester, TR (Tetoron/Rayon), TC (Tetoron/Cotton), and other blended fabrics, Sylic CY-402G-4 demonstrates excellent compatibility and performance. Its versatility ensures that textile manufacturers working with diverse fiber compositions can benefit from its unique properties.

Beyond the tactile benefits, one of the most significant advantages of this advanced silicone emulsion is its high stability. Unlike traditional amino silicone oils which can sometimes lead to processing issues, Sylic CY-402G-4 is engineered to be highly stable in application baths. This stability translates into significant operational benefits, including no sticky rollers, no sticky cylinders, no oil floating, and no demulsification during processing. These issues are common frustrations in textile finishing that can lead to defects and production downtime, making the stability of Sylic CY-402G-4 a key differentiator and contributor to high cost performance.

The product is presented as a translucent to transparent light yellow liquid, making it easy to handle and incorporate into standard finishing formulations. Its ionic character is described as weak cationic / nonionic, offering flexibility in formulation compatibility. Typical content ranges between 15%-17% (measured at 105ºC for 3 hours), with a Brix value of 14%-16%. These specifications ensure consistent product quality and performance.

For application, Sylic CY-402G-4 can be effectively used in both dipping and padding processes. Reference usage amounts typically range from 1% to 5% (o.w.f - on weight of fabric) for the dipping process and 10g/l to 50g/l for the padding process. These guidelines provide a starting point for optimizing application based on specific fabric types and desired finish levels.

Packaging for Sylic CY-402G-4 is available in convenient 50 kg or 120 kg plastic barrels, designed for safe transport and storage. It is recommended to store the product in a cool and ventilated warehouse, where it maintains a storage period of typically 6 months, ensuring product integrity over time.

Quality and environmental compliance are increasingly important considerations in the global textile industry. We understand the need for products that not only perform well but also meet stringent international standards. Sylic CY-402G-4 has been developed with these requirements in mind. It has successfully passed several key certifications, including OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, REACH, ISO9001, and GOTs. These certifications confirm that the product does not contain harmful substances such as APEO and formaldehyde, making it suitable for export to markets with strict environmental protection requirements, such as the EU and North America. Our commitment to quality is further underscored by adherence to recognized quality management systems.

The development of such specialized textile auxiliaries relies on strong R&D capabilities and a deep understanding of fiber chemistry and finishing processes. Continuous research and innovation are essential to create products like Sylic CY-402G-4 that offer improved performance, efficiency, and environmental profiles.

Textile manufacturers seeking to enhance the handle and quality of their fabrics while ensuring process efficiency and environmental responsibility will find Sylic CY-402G-4 to be an excellent solution. Its proven performance on various fabric types, combined with its superior stability and strong certification profile, makes it a valuable addition to any textile finishing operation.

For textile manufacturers looking to incorporate this advanced silicone softener into their production, finding a reliable manufacturer and supplier is crucial. Information regarding the price of Sylic CY-402G-4 is typically available upon inquiry, often depending on order volume and specific logistical requirements. Details on how to buy or purchase this product can be obtained by contacting suppliers directly, discussing quantity needs, packaging preferences, and delivery options. Leading suppliers are equipped to handle inquiries for various volumes, including providing samples for evaluation before a bulk purchase is made. Establishing a relationship with a reputable supplier ensures consistent access to this high-quality textile auxiliary.
