FLUID-ODS

FLUID-ODS | Hydrophilic Silicone Fluids

Product Information

Fluid-ODS is a non yellowing, high viscosity amido siloxane fluid. Fluid-ODS emulsion imparts hydrophilic soft and smooth handle to all types of fabric without affecting whiteness of original fabric. It maintains original hydrophilicity of cellulosics and its blends with synthetics. Hydrophilic properties will not change with ageing or extreme drying conditions. Emulisified product is stable to high shear force and broad pH range upto 12.

Instruction for Dilution

Emulsification :

It can be easily emulsified into stable nano emulsion by medium to high shear force mixer. (turbo stirrer or normal stirrer)


Typical formulation for nano-emulsion :

Method :

  • Take Fluid-ODS and surfactants (Tridecyl alcohol ethoxylate 6.5 mole and 12 mole) in an SS vessel and stir for 20-25 mins.
  • Add water-1 and acetic acid; mix gradually under constant stirring and stir for 15-20 mins.
  • Add water-2 gradually and stir for 10-15 mins.
  • Add 54 parts of water-3 and mix for 15 mins. till homogeneous
Precautions

Storage : Store in cool, ventilated shed away from heat and direct sunlight. Storage temperature should not exceed 35 deg C.Close lids firmly to avoid contact with air and moisture.

Shelf Life : 9 months from the date of manufacturing, if stored under controlled conditions.
