Products in Laundry & Fabric Care: Siloxanes

WACKER® E60 1000 is a 60% emulsion of a medium-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane fluid using a nonionic surfactant system. This product has been designed to be used in many applications, such as mold release, furniture polish, automotive care, and other specialty product applications.

WACKER® E35 10000 is a 35% emulsion of a high-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane. It is designed to be used in many applications, such as mold release, car and furniture polish, textile lubricants and softeners, automotive care,and other specialty product applications. The E35 Series emulsions contain sodium nitrite as a corrosion inhibitor. These emulsions should not be used in contact with amines.

WACKER® E 110 is a nonionic macroemulsion of nonreactive polydimethylsiloxane. It is primarily used for treating fibers and textiles, either alone in aqueous dilution or in combination with organic softeners. Before mixing with organic softeners, a compatibility test is recommended. WACKER® E 110 serves as a sewing thread lubricant for polyester yarns used on high-speed sewing machines, reducing friction between the fibers.

WACKER® EAF 300 is a general-purpose, low-cost, low-molecular-weight reactive aminoethylaminopropyl fluid. It provides a very soft hand and exhibits the normal yellowing characteristics typically associated with amino silicones. WACKER® EAF 300 is specifically well-suited as an active ingredient in softener formulations for the impregnation of fibers and textiles.

WACKER® E 22 is a high-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane formulated as an oil-in-water emulsion. This finely dispersed emulsion provides excellent stability, allowing for the preparation of highly diluted, ready-to-use formulations that are unaffected by shear forces. WACKER® E 22 is a special, finely dispersed formulation of a highly viscous polydimethylsiloxane in water. The emulsion is extremely stable, so even highly diluted, ready-to-use formulations are indifferent to shear forces.

HANSA CARE 7140 ECO is a silicone solution used as an ingredient for home and car care applications. These aminosiloxanes are modified siloxanes with nitrogen groups. The modification degree leads to optimal performance in aqueous or solvent-borne formulations for home and car care applications. These products are excellently suited for use in polishes, wax formulations, and drying aids in automatic or manual car washes. It also provides perfect drying characteristics such as good water repellence and excellent gloss.

H-Sil® EM 1060 is a 60% active, nonionic emulsion of 10,000 cSt polydimethylsiloxane. This product can be used as-is or diluted with water to form a stable emulsion letdown. It is effective as a release agent for rubber, plastic, and shell metals in foundry applications. This product has additional applications in leather care, textiles, surface lubrication, surface protection, and gloss improvement.

H-Sil® OE is a silicone-based odor eliminator designed for industrial and consumer applications. This product acts as an odor eliminator by neutralizing the nitrogen groups that are present in most odors. It is a concentrate that can be diluted at 5 - 10% by weight in water for most applications. No other additives are needed. Fragrances can be added to the dilution by using common surfactants and fragrance bases. 5% dilutions of H-Sil® OE were successfully compared against leading industrial and consumer products via a test panel, and it consistently outlasted the competitors. At a use level of 5 - 10%, this product was successfully tested against the following odors:

• Smoke
• Butyric acid (body odor)
• Amine odors
• Urine
• Ammonia
