Silico®-N323D2 Dual-Amino Silicone Fluids
Silico® N322D2 is an amino-modified silicone oil with dual-amino side chains. It bonds strongly to hair and textile fibers (cotton, wool, silk, linen), forming a durable protective film. This enhances softness, smoothness, gloss, and provides superior wear, bend, and wash resistance.
Introduction
Silico® N322D2 is an amino-modified silicone oil with dual-amino side chains. Its molecular structure is:
R1(CH₃)₂SiO[(CH₃)₂SiO]ₘ[(R₂)(CH₃)SiO]ₙSi(CH₃)₂R1
Where R1 is methyl or hydroxyl, and R2 is an aminoalkyl group with primary and secondary amines. This product has strong adsorption to hair and textile fibers (cotton, wool, silk, linen), forming a durable protective film that enhances softness, smoothness, gloss, and provides excellent wear, bend, and wash resistance.
