FERMA-986

FERMA-986 | Hydrophilic Silicone Fluid

Product Information

Ferma-986 is a non yellowing, silicone oil. Its emulsion imparts hydrophilic, greasy / peach handle with lubricity for all types of fibers. It maintains original absorbency of cellulosic and increases the hydrophilicity of synthetics. It is stable at broad pH range and compatible with optical brightness and residual electrolytes.
