Provided is an oil-in-water-type emulsion composition which can be produced by directly emulsifying an organopolysiloxane having a high polymerization degree, contains substantially no oversized particle, and has a small average particle size. A method for producing the oil-in-water-type emulsion composition using a vertical batch mixer is also provided. The oil-in-water-type emulsion composition is an emulsion comprising (A) an organopolysiloxane having an overall viscosity of 1,000,000 mPa·s or more or having plasticity or a mixture thereof, (B) a surfactant, and (C) water. Component (A) is emulsified in water by the action of component (B), the average particle size of emulsion particles falls within the range from 0.1 to 7.5 μm, and the content of emulsion particles each having a particle size 10 times or more larger than the average particle size is less than 5.0 vol %.

Oil-in-water-type emulsion composition, method for producing same, and use of same

The water-repellent silicone water-based emulsion composition of the present invention consists of a mixture of (A) a silicone water-based emulsion composed of water, emulsifying agent, and diorganopolysiloxane having at least 2 silicone-bonded hydroxyl groups in each molecule, (B) a silicone water-based emulsion composed of water, emulsifying agent, and organohydrogenpolysiloxane having at least 2 silicon-bonded hydrogen atoms in each molecule, and (C) curing catalyst. It is characterized by an excellent storage stability, and by the formation on curing of a rubbery elastomeric coating film which has an excellent alkali resistance, water repellency, water-repellant sealability, and durability of adhesion.

Silicone water-based emulsion composition

An aqueous silicone emulsion coating material has been developed with can be used to form a membrane with a decorative, uneven surface. The decorative surface is durable and waterproof. The coating material consists essentially of aqueous silicone emulsion which gives an elastomer upon removal of the water component, inorganic filler, and short, hydrophilic, organic fibers.

Aqueous silicone emulsion coating material

According to the present invention, an aqueous silicone emulsion composition is produced as follows. A base emulsion is prepared from prescribed quantities of an essentially straight-chain organopolysiloxane with at least 2 silicon-bonded hydroxyl groups in each molecule, colloidal silica or alkali metal silicate, a curing catalyst, an emulsifier and water. After the pH is adjusted to 9 to 12 and ripened until an elastomer material is formed by the removal of water at room temperature, prescribed quantities of an epoxy-functional silane coupling agent or its partial hydrolysis product or its partial hydrolysis condensation product, a filler and a dispersant are added. The produced aqueous silicone emulsion composition bonds tightly to porous substrates in contact with it during curing and is therefore extremely useful as a coating or sealing material for various porous substrates.

Method for producing an aqueous silicone emulsion composition

Described is a method of producing silicone aqueous emulsion compositions which cure at room temperature by the removal of water to form elastomeric coatings or films with superior surface gloss, good adhesion to substrates, and rustproofness. The method prepares an emulsion of polydiorganosiloxane having at least two hydroxyl groups per molecule, colloidal silica or alkali metal silicate, curing catalyst, emulsifier, and water, the emulsion having a pH of from 9 to 12. After a period of ripening for a period of time, so that an elastomeric material will be formed when water is removed at room temperature, an amino-functional silane or its partial hydrolyzate is added to give the emulsion its improved properties.
