Hydroxysilicone oil has been widely used in various industrial fields due to its unique chemical structure and properties. The following are the most widely used areas:
1. Silicone rubber processing
Hydroxyl silicone oil is widely used in the silicone rubber industry, especially low molecular weight hydroxyl silicone oil, which is often used as a structural control agent (wetting agent) for mixing silicone rubber. It can improve the processing performance of silicone rubber, extend the storage period of rubber materials, increase the transparency and mechanical properties of rubber products. In addition, high molecular weight hydroxyl silicone oil is also used as the basic rubber material for room temperature vulcanized silicone rubber. The silicone rubber products made from it have excellent high and low temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, and electrical insulation, and are widely used in fields such as electronics, electrical appliances, and national defense.

2. Textile and leather processing
Hydroxysilicone oil is mainly used in the textile and leather industries to improve the surface properties of materials
Textiles: hydroxyl silicone oil lotion can be used as a fabric softener and waterproof finishing agent, giving the fabric a soft and smooth feel, while improving its waterproof and antifouling properties. It can also be combined with other additives to achieve multifunctionality of fabrics.
Leather: Used for waterproof, softening, and anti sticking treatment of leather, which can restore the flexibility and glossiness of leather.

3. Coatings and inks
Hydroxysilicone oil, as an additive in coatings and inks, can improve the flowability and adhesion of coatings, enhance the weather resistance and wear resistance of products. In addition, it can also be used to prepare coatings with special functions such as leveling, scratch resistance, and adhesion resistance.

4. Cosmetics and personal care
Hydroxysilicone oil is commonly used in skincare products, hair conditioners, and shampoos due to its excellent lubricity and breathability, which can enhance the user experience of the products.

5. Other applications
Paper processing: Used for waterproof treatment of paper, improving its water resistance and moisture resistance.
Medical devices: Hydroxysilicone oil can be used to manufacture materials with excellent flexibility, water resistance, and biocompatibility in medical devices and biomaterials.
Lubricants and release agents: Hydroxysilicone oil can be used as a lubricant and release agent in rubber and plastic processing to improve production efficiency and product quality.

In summary, hydroxyl silicone oil, with its excellent properties, has a wide range of applications in fields such as silicone rubber processing, textile processing, coatings, and cosmetics, and is an indispensable and important material in modern industry.
