Silicone Textile Softeners Market: Introduction
Silicone is the common chemical used in textile processes such as dyeing and finishing. Silicone textile softeners are generally used to enhance the softness of fabrics. Silicon textile softeners improve the tear strength, mobility of fibers, abrasion resistance of fabrics, static protection and soiling resistance. They also reduce yarn and fabric tensile strength by reducing fiber cohesion, pilling, flammability as well as breakage of the sewing thread.
Silicone softeners improve the properties of cloth, which include imparting a silky soft touch, crease recovery, improved lubricity, etc. Silicone softeners are more expensive than certain other softeners, however, they exhibit temperature stability and excellent durability. They enhance the softness of fabrics to match customer perception. Silicone is an organometallic polymer obtained from sand, an abundantly available raw material. Silicone is a standard term that states a specific class of synthetic polymers created from a framework of alternating oxygen and silicone with organic substituents attached to silicone. Among these, methyl group organics are the most important organic substituents used in commercial silicone.
