The use of polyether silicone oil It can be used in a variety of personal care products, hair sprays and other leave-in hair care products, skin lotions, shaving creams, shampoos, silicone oil emulsifiers.
The introduction of polyether group also increases the hygroscopicity, antistatic property and easy decontamination of the finished fiber or fabric, so polyether silicone oil is used more in cosmetics and shampoo products. However, polyether silicone oil has weak self-crosslinking film-forming ability and binding ability with fibers. This problem can be solved if some epoxy groups are introduced or retained on the main chain of the silicone oil during the preparation process. In terms of performance, it not only has all the advantages of polyether silicone oil, but also the finished fabric is softer, wrinkle-resistant, washable, and has a strong wool feel. Therefore, polyether/epoxy silicone oil is a type of active silicone softener with the largest amount and the best effect before the successful development of cationic amino silicone softener.
