Silicone Fluid Emulsion 40
Silicone Fluid Emulsion 40 RXSOL is a 40 percent emulsion of medium viscosity polydimethylsiloxane, using a nonionic surfactant system. It has been designed for use in many applications including automotive care, polishes, industrial release and textile lubricants.
Silicone Fluid Emulsion 40 RXSOL is a 40% emulsion of medium viscosity polydimethylsiloxane, using a nonionic surfactant system. It has been designed for use in many applications including automotive care, polishes, industrial release and textile lubricants. Silicone Fluid Emulsion 40 is designed to allow formulators to prepare a range of different strength products, from a single feedstock, to exact customer requirements, by simply mixing with water in the appropriate ratio. Stable emulsions down to 15% solids are easily prepared to order, using standard paddle or propeller stirrers.
- As ingredient in polishes, Silicone Fluid Emulsion 40 Rx is used to provide good gloss with minimum smear in both car and furniture polish formulations
-
Mould release of: Rubber or plastic parts (stoppers, screw tops, bungs, etc.) Release agent for manufacturing rubberized belts.
Release agent in printing industry. - Lubrication of Extruded rubber parts conveyor belts. Lubricant to prevent wear & increase abrasion resistance to latex rubber.
- Textile lubricant: Yarn manufacture Sewing thread lubrication
- Hosiery manufacture
- Sewing needle lubrication, Lubricant for sewing threads & yarn to eliminate friction & tension.
- Glass fabric exhaust filters
- Rubber Goods such as Rubber Parts, Bands, Mats, Tube etc.
- Tyre Manufacturing, Tire shine & auto detailing fluid.
- Foundries
- Surgical gloves
- Chappals, Soles and heels
- Latex Manufacturing
- Plastic release
- In Cold tyre remolding process
- Release of concrete products.
- Non-flammable silicone lubricant-excellent alternative to solvent based formulations.
-
Provides finish & improves water repellency for leather, vinyl & foam upholstery.
-
Gives excellent dry soft handle to the fabric.
-
Treated synthetic fabric have crispy handle.
Using procedure
Wipe, brush or spray the emulsion, usually diluted. Recommended starting concentration is 2 % to 5 %. (Total solids of Mould Release Agent by water). The user is recommended to determine the best conditions of dilution and application on a test sample before using in production. Breaking in the surface of new or freshly cleaned molds is best done by applying a light coat of undiluted release agent and running the empty mold through one or two heat cycles. After excess residual base fluid is wiped from the surface, the mold is ready for use.

Silicone Fluid Emulsion 40 RXSOL is recommended as a mould releasing agent in rubber industries. It can be used as universal release agent in rubber processing. Furthermore, the emulsion is suitable best for the formulation of paint and vinyl conditioners. The active agent contained supports an easy polishing of the conditioner formulations and improves the brightness. It is a specially modified emulsion of poly dimethyl siloxane to give dry, crispy feel to the fabrics especially to synthetics.
