The soft, smooth, and antistatic properties of high-end fabrics often owe much to silicone softeners. IOTA 902 (γ-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane) is a crucial raw material for preparing amino-modified silicone oils.
When amino functional groups are bonded to the silicone oil molecular backbone, they significantly improve the orientation of silicone on the fiber surface, allowing the silicone molecules to bind more tightly to the fiber. This results in a more lasting soft feel and excellent antistatic, wash-resistant, and wrinkle-resistant properties.
From high-end apparel to home furnishings, IOTA 902 not only enhances the feel of textiles but also adds functionality and durability, providing the textile finishing industry with an efficient and environmentally friendly solution.
