Silicones are often essential both for conferring certain properties in the production of textiles, leather and fibers, and for ensuring that the production processes themselves run smoothly. As finishing agents, silicones generate the highly prized soft hand of textiles and increase water repellency. Foam-control emulsions are highly effective process auxiliaries, as used for instance in wastewater treatment.
