ACSIC Products for Textile Applications:
Silicone enables textiles industry to produce functional fabrics, high performance and intelligent textitles. Silicones treatments keep textiles soft, even with repeated washings. Silicones enable new techniques to design sportswear that is lightweight, durable, water repellent and high performing, while allowing the fabric to maintain “breathability.” As finishes, silicones help fabrics retain shape, texture and resistance to abrasion. Silicones are used in dry cleaning because they help carry detergent while rinsing away suspended dirt and oils trapped by the detergent, therefore maintaining the quality and color of cleaned clothes. Silicones help to enhance desirable properties such as:
- Water resistance
- Durability
- Flexibility
- Processibility
- Temperature stability & resistance
- Weatheribility
