Silicone polyether
Description
Silicone polyether (CAS 68937-55-3 ), also supplied under designations such as Y-10734 and XF-J 2557, is a silicone-based surfactant that combines the surface-active properties of polyether with the film-forming characteristics of silicone. It functions as a wetting agent, emulsifier, and foam modifier across a broad range of formulated products. In personal care, it conditions skin and hair by improving spreadability and providing a smooth, non-greasy feel. This material is frequently used in lotions, serums, and leave-on treatments to enhance texture. Textile and leather processing operations use it to achieve uniform dye penetration and surface leveling during finishing stages. In agricultural formulations, it lowers surface tension in spray concentrates, improving droplet spread and active ingredient coverage on leaf surfaces. This ensures more efficient delivery of crop protection products. Household and industrial cleaners incorporate it to control foam levels while maintaining detergency. It remains effective in both low- and high-temperature wash processes, making it a versatile additive for detergents. Silicone polyether is supplied as a clear to slightly hazy liquid, typically at varying viscosity grades suited to different formulation requirements. Standard supply options include technical and cosmetic-grade specifications. Selection is driven by the target application and regional regulatory requirements. Bulk supply is available in drums and intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) to meet the needs of large-scale industrial manufacturing. Contact us for supply of Silicone polyether Request Quote
