Abstract Aqueous emulsions for impregnating organic fibers, comprising, in addition to water and dispersants, (1) a diorganopolysiloxane having a Si-bonded hydroxyl group in each terminal unit and whose organic radicals are free of basic nitrogen atoms; (2) an organopolysiloxane containing diorganosiloxane units in which the two organic radicals are monovalent hydrocarbon radicals and also contains at least two monovalent SiC-bonded organic radicals per molecule having a basic nitrogen atom in which the organopolysiloxane is present in the emulsion in an amount of from 5 to 50 weight percent based on the weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1); (3) an organosilicon compound selected from an organosilane containing at least two SiOC-bonded monovalent organic radicals consisting of carbon, hydrogen and possibly oxygen and/or partial hydrolyzates thereof, in which the organosilicon compound is present in the emulsion in an amount of from 2 to 6 weight percent based on the total weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2); and (4) a condensation catalyst, which is present in an amount of from 0.2 to 1 weight percent based on the total weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2). These aqueous emulsions are prepared by mixing the organosilicon compound (3) with an emulsion of diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2) and thereafter mixing the resultant mixture with the condensation catalyst (4).
An aqueous emulsion for impregnating organic fibers comprising in addition to water and a dispersant: (1) a diorganopolysiloxane having a Si-bonded hydroxyl group in each terminal unit, in which the organic radicals of the diorganopolysiloxane are free of basic nitrogen atoms; (2) an organopolysiloxane containing diorganosiloxane units in which the organic radicals of the diorganosiloxane are monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, and at least two monovalent SiC-bonded organic radicals per molecule having a basic nitrogen atom, in which the organopolysiloxane (2) is present in the emulsion in an amount of from 5 to 50 weight percent based on the weight of diorganopolysiloxane (1); (3) an organosilicon compound selected from the group consisting of an organosilane containing at least two SiOC-bonded monovalent organic radicals containing carbon and hydrogen or carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, partial hydrolyzates of such organosilane and mixtures thereof, in which the organosilicon compound (3) is present in the emulsion in an amount of from 2 to 6 weight percent based on the total weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2); and (4) a condensation catalyst, which is present in the emulsion in an amount of from 0.2 to 1 weight percent based on the toatal weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organosiloxane (2), in which the emulsion is prepared by mixing the organosilicon compound (3) with an aqueous emulsion containing diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2) and thereafter mixing the resultant emulsion with the condensation catalyst.
