This application relates to water-soluble polysiloxanes, their preparation methods, and applications. The preparation method of water-soluble polysiloxanes includes: mixing
lipase,
trehalose, and a surfactant to prepare a modified
lipase; and mixing
vinyl acetate, alkoxysilane, monomethoxy
polyethylene glycol, and the modified
lipase to prepare the water-soluble polysiloxane. This preparation method utilizes
trehalose to coat the lipase, forming a modified lipase that maintains high catalytic activity at higher temperatures for extended periods. This allows for the efficient one-step preparation of water-soluble polysiloxanes via lipase-catalyzed reactions. Compared to traditional acid / base
synthesis methods, this method achieves higher conversion rates at lower reaction temperatures, eliminates the need for antioxidants, and yields water-soluble polysiloxanes with good water
solubility, light
transmittance, and safety.
