Amino silicone oil is mainly used in the textile field. my country is the world’s largest consumer market.
Amino silicone oil, also known as amino-modified silicone oil, amino-modified polysiloxane, and amino-modified silicone, is a basic ingredient specially used as a textile softening agent. Amino silicone oil has easy emulsification, adsorption and compatibility. It can be used alone or mixed with organic softener or silicone to make special softening agents for different fabrics.
Amino silicone oil can be used in various fields after being emulsified, and emulsification is a key step in its production. The amino silicone oil emulsification process includes three types: reverse phase emulsification method, water phase emulsification method and phase transition temperature method. The reverse phase emulsification method refers to mixing amino silicone oil, emulsifier and water, and reacting to obtain the finished product; the water phase emulsification method requires first dissolving the emulsifier in water, and then slowly adding the amino silicone oil to obtain the finished product; the phase transition temperature method requires The temperature is strictly controlled and the operation process is complicated, and it has not yet been applied on a large scale.
According to the “2022-2027 China Amino Silicone Oil Industry Market In-depth Research and Development Prospect Forecast Report released by the Industrial Research Center, amino The main application field of silicone oil is the textile industry, and synthetic fibers and natural fibers are its end products. Amino silicone oil with high ammonia value has the advantages of good emulsification and high polarity. It has strong adsorption to textile fabrics and can make the fabric feel softer. With the rapid economic development, the prosperity of my country’s synthetic fiber industry continues to increase. According to data from the National Bureau of Statistics, from January to April 2022, my country’s cumulative output of synthetic fibers reached 20.214 million tons, a year-on-year increase of 2.5%. Driven by downstream demand, my country’s amino silicone oil market continues to expand, and will exceed 1 billion yuan in 2021.
The world’s leading amino silicone oil companies are mainly concentrated in Europe, the United States and Japan, including ShinEtsu Chemical Industry Co., Ltd. of Japan, Dow Chemical Company of the United States, Momentive Advanced Materials Group of the United States, and Wacker International Group of Germany. The above four companies Occupying nearly 50.0% of the global amino silicone oil market. In addition, large global chemical companies such as DuPont in the United States, ELKAY in the United States, and KCC Co., Ltd. in South Korea also have amino silicone oil production capabilities.
my country is the world’s largest consumer of amino silicone oil, accounting for 35.0% of the market. China Blue Star (Group) Co., Ltd., Jiangxi Xinghuo Silicone Factory, and Ningbo Runhe High-tech Materials Technology Co., Ltd. are the main manufacturers of amino silicone oil in my country. As the world’s leading chemical materials and specialty chemicals company, Blue Star Group’s aminosilicone oil production capacity ranks first in my country.
Industry analysts said that amino silicone oil has the characteristics of emulsification and adsorption, and can be used as a softening finishing agent in the textile field. widely. With the rapid development of my country’s textile industry, the market demand for aminosilicone oil is increasingly strong, and its market size will further expand. Competition in the global amino silicone oil market is fierce. Driven by positive factors such as technological innovation, my country’s amino silicone oil companies have gradually gained a competitive advantage in the global market.
