Amino silicone emulsion thickeners are fine chemicals specially designed to adjust the viscosity and fluidity of amino silicone emulsions. Their main components include polymers and surfactants, which react with ions in amino silicone emulsions to form a three-dimensional network structure, thereby increasing the viscosity of the emulsion.
The main function of amino silicone emulsion thickeners is to improve the adhesion performance of the emulsion and increase its utilization rate. By adding thickeners, amino silicone emulsions can better adhere to the surface, reducing loss and waste. In addition, thickeners can also improve the permeability and diffusivity of the emulsion, making it easier to absorb and utilize. At the same time, some special thickeners can also improve the wind erosion resistance and rainwater scouring resistance of the emulsion, and extend its effectiveness time.
Amino silicone emulsion thickeners have a wide range of applications. In the field of coatings and inks, thickeners can improve the adhesion performance and water resistance of coatings, and increase the hiding power and leveling of coatings. In the field of cosmetics, thickeners can be used as stabilizers and suspending agents to effectively protect and enhance the effects of cosmetics. In the medical field, thickeners can be used as drug carriers to improve the stability and bioavailability of drugs. In addition, amino silicone emulsion thickeners can also play an important role in leather, textiles and construction.
When preparing amino silicone emulsion thickeners, it is necessary to consider the compatibility of the thickener with other components of the amino silicone emulsion to avoid chemical reactions that affect the stability of the emulsion. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the cost-effectiveness of the thickener and choose a thickener with a more reasonable price. In addition, in order to meet the application needs of different fields, it is also necessary to develop amino silicone emulsion thickeners with special functions, such as thickeners with antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-aging functions.
Amino-modified polydimethylsiloxane, also known as: bulky silicone oil. It is a silicone oil synthesized using special silanes and linear bodies. In addition to retaining the original hydrophobicity and demoulding properties of dimethyl silicone oil, the presence of amino groups can also give it reactivity, adsorption, lubricity and softness and other properties and is widely used.
