Composite of Quaternary ammonium salt softener and Organosilicon softener
Apr 24, 2024Organic silicon softeners, especially amino silicone oil, have smoothness, elasticity, and softness to fibers, and quaternary ammonium salt softeners also have the same characteristics. However, amino silicone oil makes the fabric particularly smooth, while its softness and fullness are not as good as quaternary ammonium salt softeners, and quaternary ammonium salt softeners are the opposite. Therefore, if two different types of softeners are used simultaneously or compounded, satisfactory softening and finishing effects can be achieved. The results are summarized by Ahsuperchem as follows:
| Number | Softener type | Dosage(owf) | Flexibility(kgf/cm2) | Compression elasticity(%) |
| 1 | Quaternary ammonium salt (10%) | 3% | 1.63 | 75.8 |
| 2 | Methyl silicone oil (85%) | 0.6% | 1.74 | 77.1 |
| 3 | Amino silicone oil (17%) | 3% | 1.6 | 80.4 |
| 4 | 1+2 | 3%+0.6% | 1.44 | 80.6 |
| 5 | 1+3 | 3%+3% | 1.48 | 83.4 |
As shown in the above table, the flexibility and elasticity of the 4 # complex are better than those of quaternary ammonium salts and methyl silicone oil used alone; The softness and elasticity of the 5 # complex are also better than the finishing effect when quaternary ammonium salts and amino silicone oil are used alone. Their compound preparation is to apply quaternary ammonium salt softener to the amino silicone oil micro lotion. Because there are enough emulsifiers in the amino silicone oil lotion, the quaternary ammonium salt and amino silicone oil can be emulsified respectively to obtain a compound emulsion.
