Manufacture of stable low particle size organopolysiloxane emulsion

摘要

Stable high viscosity organopolysiloxane emulsions with particle sizes up to 150 nanometer may be made in a simple and cost-effective manner employing a standard homogenizer, and optional subsequent polymerization of the organopolysiloxan at controlled temperature. A combination of non-ionic emulsifier together with an at least one anionic emulsifier is employed, having an HLB value 12-15, while maintaining a temperature up to 50° C.
