example 1

[0066] First, to provide a composition comprising acid, base and starting polymer, 400 g of triethanolamine was added to a change-over mixer, followed by 400 g of Marlon AS3 (alkylbenzene sulfonic acid). The mixture was mixed gently with a spatula at 30 rpm. Then 150 g of distilled water were added under stirring (60 rpm). Then 4400 g of Me with a viscosity of about 50,000 mPa sec. (cP) and a number average molecular weight of about 64,000 were added 2 SiOH terminated dimethylpolysiloxane. The mixture was stirred at 3500 rpm for 20 minutes. A thick oil-in-water emulsion is obtained. 2548 g of dilution water are then poured slowly. The masterbatch emulsion had an average particle size of 0.233 microns.

[0067] 545 g of this masterbatch emulsion were further diluted with 202 g of water in a 1 liter double wall glass reactor. The temperature was lowered until 21 °C and to start the emulsion polymerization, 92.8 g of 10% sulfuric acid were added under stirring (500 rpm) ove...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for preparing silicone-in-water emulsions by emulsion polymerization. The emulsion contains particles of an organopolysiloxane polymer having an average particle size of less than 1 μm. The method comprises: -combining a silanol-terminated organosiloxane starting polymer, water and a surfactant; the starting polymer has a viscosity of at least 2 Pa.s, preferably at least 2.5 Pa.s, preferably at least 3.5 Pa.s, preferably at least 4 Pa.s and up to 150 Pa.s; - emulsifying the starting polymer by agitating or shearing the ingredients; - polymerizing the starting polymer to form longer A chained silanol-terminated organopolysiloxane polymer; wherein at least a part of said polymerizing step is carried out at a temperature lower than or equal to 16°C, preferably lower than or equal to 15°C.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a process for preparing silicone-in-water emulsions by emulsion polymerization. Background technique [0002] Silicone-in-water emulsions can traditionally be prepared by mechanical emulsification of silicone or by emulsion polymerization. Typically, mechanical emulsification is used when relatively low viscosity silicones need to be emulsified. Of course, beyond a certain viscosity (600 Pa.s), silicones can no longer be emulsified using conventional mixers without the particle size becoming too high. [0003] Therefore, in order to prepare emulsions with high-viscosity silicones, polymerization is necessary. [0004] Various cyclosiloxanes including octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4), decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5) are widely used as monomers because of their cost-effectiveness and availability in large quantities. However, ring-opening polymerization of cyclosiloxanes is not complete and sometimes leaves large am...
