Coated Silicone: The Invisible Guardian Of Textiles

Coated silicone: the "invisible guardian" of textiles

In the processing and application of textiles, coated silicone has become the "invisible guardian" of textiles with its unique properties and wide range of applications. It can not only provide multiple functions such as anti-aging, insulation, decoration, etc., but also give it new properties such as anti-slip, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, etc. on the basis of maintaining the original properties of textiles.
2. Definition and characteristics of coated silicone

1. Definition: Coated silicone is a new type of environmentally friendly material, a liquid silicone used for anti-slip processing of textile products such as cloth, which belongs to addition injection silicone.
2. Characteristics:
Excellent anti-slip performance: After surface treatment, it has excellent anti-slip effect to ensure safe use.
Wear-resistant, washable, and high temperature resistant: It can withstand multiple washings and high temperature environments and maintain stable performance.
Food grade: non-toxic and tasteless, passed FDA food grade certification, and can be used for textiles that are in direct contact with food.
High transparency, high tensile strength, and tear resistance: while maintaining the original appearance of textiles, it enhances physical properties.
3. Application of coated silicone in textiles
1. Daily necessities such as pure cotton cloth and polyester-cotton cloth: coated silicone can be used for coating processing of these textiles to increase their anti-slip and wear-resistant properties and improve their service life.
2. Outdoor products such as field tents and high-grade umbrella cloth: through the coating of silicone, these textiles can withstand harsh environments such as wind, rain, ultraviolet rays, etc., and maintain stable performance.
3. Medical supplies such as medical garters: The anti-slip and wear-resistant properties of coated silicone make it an ideal choice for medical supplies, providing patients with a comfortable and safe experience.
4. Operation method and precautions for coating silicone
1. Operation method: Mix components A and B evenly at a weight ratio of 10:1, and operate after vacuum degassing. Note that the operation should be separated from the container that has been used for condensation type silicone, and the tool that has not been used for room temperature silicone should be used for operation.
2. Precautions: Do not contact ionic compounds containing N, P, S, and compounds containing acetylene and vinyl, so as to avoid poisoning the platinum catalyst and preventing it from curing. In particular, PVC contains Pb (lead), which can poison the catalyst, and some organic pigments can also cause slow curing or no curing.
With its unique properties and wide range of applications, coated silicone plays the role of "invisible guardian" in the field of textiles. Through its anti-slip, wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant and other properties, it provides textiles with a longer service life and a better use experience. At the same time, its food-grade, non-toxic and tasteless properties also make it an ideal choice for textiles that come into direct contact with food. During operation, it is necessary to pay attention to follow the correct operating methods and precautions to ensure that its performance is fully utilized.
