Application of Amino-terminated Polydimethylsiloxane in Various Industries
Bis(3-aminopropyl)-terminated polydimethylsiloxane is an amino-terminated silicone oil. Thanks to its polydimethylsiloxane backbone, it inherits the low surface energy, high and low temperature resistance, and outstanding flexibility of silicone materials. Furthermore, the aminopropyl functional groups at both ends of the molecule possess the high reactivity and functionalization potential of amino groups, making it an in-demand material in many fields:
01
Polymer Material Modification: A "Performance Amplifier" for Engineering Materials
Amino groups can react with epoxy groups, isocyanate groups, aldehydes, and ketones, providing a key approach for customized modification of materials such as polyimides, polyamides, polyurethanes, and epoxy resins. These modified materials combine the advantages of silicone, such as low surface energy, high and low temperature resistance, and aging resistance, with the inherent strength and rigidity of the substrate.
02
Personal Care: An "Invisible Hair Care"
Amino-terminated silicone oil is a key additive in personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, and hair treatments. Because terminal amino silicone oil has strong adsorption and a long siloxane molecular chain segment, it can react with the hydroxyl and carboxyl groups on the hair surface [1], forming a smooth protective film on the hair surface, smoothing frizzy and split ends, giving the hair a moisturized, smooth and flowing feeling, improving the dry and wet combing properties of the hair, and deeply repairing damaged hair.
03
Textile Industry: The "Soft Magician" of Fabric Softening
The demand for "soft, skin-friendly and washable" textile fabrics can be precisely met by terminal amino silicone oil. The high reactivity of amino groups can efficiently combine with the fiber surface, allowing the siloxane chain segments to be directional adsorbed on the fiber surface, reducing the friction coefficient between fibers, giving the fabric a soft, smooth and plump feel, and providing good washability and breathability.
