Organic silicon tackifier is a polymer based on siloxane as the basic skeleton, which can effectively improve its adhesion performance through interaction with other polymer materials. According to its chemical structure, organosilicon tackifiers can be divided into the following categories:
1. Silicone rubber tackifier:
Silicone rubber is an artificial synthetic material with softness and elasticity, commonly used in sealing, insulation, and medical fields. Adding an appropriate amount of organic silicon tackifier to silicone rubber can significantly improve its bonding strength with various materials.
2. Silicone resin tackifier:
Silicone resin is a polymer synthetic material with excellent electrical insulation, weather resistance, and high temperature resistance. By adding organic silicon tackifier to silicone resin, its adhesion to various substrates can be effectively improved.
3. Silicone oil tackifier:
Silicone oil is a type of compound with siloxane as the basic structure, which has excellent lubrication performance and chemical stability. Adding a certain amount of organic silicon tackifier to silicone oil can enhance its wettability and adhesion to various polymers.
Application scenarios of organic silicon tackifiers
Organic silicon tackifiers are widely used in the following areas due to their excellent performance and wide range of applications:
1. Adhesive field:
Organic silicon tackifiers have a wide range of applications in the field of adhesives, which can improve the adhesion performance of various polymer materials. For example, when making adhesives such as universal adhesives and structural adhesives, adding an appropriate amount of silicone tackifier can significantly improve their adhesion and weather resistance.
2. Coating field:
Organic silicon tackifiers are also widely used in coatings. By adding an appropriate amount of silicone tackifier to various coatings, the film forming performance and adhesion ability to various substrates of the coatings can be effectively improved. Especially in the preparation of high-performance coatings such as architectural coatings and ship coatings, organosilicon tackifiers have become an indispensable and important component.
3. Plastic field:
Organic silicon tackifiers are also widely used in plastic processing. When producing plastic products such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), and polypropylene (PP), adding a certain amount of organic silicon tackifier can effectively improve the adhesion of plastic products to various substrates. For example, when making plastic films, adding an appropriate amount of silicone tackifier can significantly improve the adhesion and sealing strength of the film.
4. Rubber field:
Organic silicon tackifiers also play an important role in the production of rubber products. When producing rubber sheets, rubber pipes, rubber shoes, and other products, adding a certain amount of silicone tackifier can effectively improve the adhesion and tear resistance of rubber products. Especially in the production of tires, the application of silicone tackifiers can significantly improve the adhesion strength and durability of tires to various materials.
5. Personal care field:
Organic silicon tackifiers are also widely used in the field of personal care products. For example, adding an appropriate amount of silicone tackifier to personal care products such as shampoo and shower gel can improve the product's moisture and adhesion ability, thereby improving the use effect and comfort.
