It is specifically designed for formulating paint or vinyl conditioners, where the active ingredient enhances gloss and depth of image. Additionally, WACKER® E 1044 can be easily diluted with water to achieve a ready-to-use emulsion.

WACKER® L 656 is an aminoalkyl-functional polydimethylsiloxane. Compared to other curable amino silicone fluids, it demonstrates improved storage stability, both in its pure form and in ready-to-use formulations. This makes WACKER® L 656 an excellent choice as a component for rinse-off agents in automatic car washes.

WACKER® L 653 is an aminoalkyl functional polydimethylsiloxane. Unlike other curable amino silicone fluids, it offers improved storage stability both in its pure form and in ready-to-use formulations. WACKER® L 653 finds application in paint conditioners and paint polishes, delivering enhanced gloss and detergent resistance. Compared to conventional polydimethylsiloxanes like the WACKER® AK series, the aminoalkyl functional WACKER® L 653 demonstrates excellent affinity to a variety of substrates, ensuring long-lasting gloss and color depth.

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.

WACKER® 1035 is a silicone resin compound available as a low-viscosity 50% solution. This product is specifically designed for formulating straightforward release agent systems, particularly for use in polyurethane (PUR) processing. WACKER® 1035 can be easily blended with polydimethylsiloxanes from the WACKER® AK series. In addition to WACKER® 1035, Wacker-Chemie offers a range of 100% products, such as WACKER® TPR and WACKER® 1038, which provide varying release properties and paintability options.
