Product Description
RUISOFT 8036B is a linear block silicone copolymer, with polyether and amino functional groups and other traditional chemical entities. RUISOFT 8036B delivers a smooth and soft hand to cellulosic fibers and synthetic fibers or their blends with natural fibers. RUISOFT 8036B can self-emulsify, which leads to excellent stability and non-demulsification.

Application
As a textile auxiliary agent, RUISOFT 8036B can be used for a variety of fabrics, including cotton, synthetic fibers and their blends with natural fibers. RUISOFT 8036B can be applied by padding and impregnation finishing. The emulsion based on RUISOFT 8036B is compatible with most textile auxiliaries. RUISOFT 8036B is self-dispersible, so there is no need for emulsifiers. Due to the high solid content, it is best to dilute before use, and the dilution ratio should be 1:2-1:5.
