Emulsion-Based Release Agent IOTA 22300 is a high-performance release material based on special silicone oil, presented in the form of a stable emulsion. Its core function is to form a uniform and effective release coating on the surfaces of various substrates such as paper and films. This enables pressure-sensitive adhesive tapes, labels, self-adhesive materials, or other sticky substances to be peeled off easily and cleanly when needed, without residue or damage. This product is typically used in conjunction with dedicated catalysts and anchorage curing agents. Through a controlled curing process, it forms a firm and performance-stable release layer on the substrate.
As a safe and environmentally friendly emulsion-based silicone material, IOTA 22300 plays a crucial role in modern industrial production. Its applications are wide-ranging and highly targeted. In the production of pressure-sensitive adhesive products, it is primarily used to manufacture release liners, commonly known as "release paper" or "release film." These liners are the direct carriers for products like tapes, labels, and adhesive decals. The quality of their release performance directly affects the peeling feel, adhesive face integrity, and production efficiency of the final product during use. A stable and reliable release coating ensures smooth unwinding of tape rolls at high speeds, allows labels to be accurately picked and applied by automatic labeling machines, and avoids issues such as adhesive oozing, breaking, or failure to release caused by improper release force. In the field of food packaging, this product also serves a unique release function, for example in baking paper, pizza box separators, and cheese slice liners. It must comply with relevant food contact material safety regulations, ensuring effective anti-stick performance while not compromising food safety and quality. Furthermore, in a broad range of industrial release scenarios, such as the molding of composite materials, processing of rubber products, or temporary protection of special chemical materials, IOTA 22300 can provide reliable release solutions, assisting products with complex shapes to release perfectly from molds and improving production yield.
The ability of IOTA 22300 to meet these diverse application requirements stems from a series of optimized product characteristics. First, it possesses the characteristic of "fast curing." When combined with a catalyst and subjected to heat, it can rapidly complete the cross-linking reaction on the production line to form a stable release film. This characteristic is significant for modern processes requiring high-speed coating and continuous production. It directly increases production line speed, shortens process cycles, thereby reducing unit energy consumption and overall production costs. Whether it is "online" coating and curing (i.e., directly synchronizing coating and release layer processing on the substrate production line) or "offline" conversion processing (i.e., reprocessing on independent coaters), this product adapts well, providing flexibility for production line layout.
Second, the product exhibits "high catalyst bath stability." This means that the mixture of the emulsion and catalyst can remain stable for an extended period during the preparation of the working solution, resisting demulsification, stratification, or premature activity decay. This feature is crucial for ensuring consistent quality in large-scale continuous production. It reduces the risk of release force fluctuations caused by changes in the working solution properties, ensuring that the coated release liners maintain uniform and consistent performance from the beginning to the end of a production batch. This lowers the difficulty of quality control and the rate of defective products. Simultaneously, good bath stability also reduces the frequency of equipment downtime for cleaning and solution re-preparation, further enhancing equipment utilization and production efficiency.
Moreover, IOTA 22300 emphasizes "good anchorage on different surfaces." The release coating does not exist in isolation; it must adhere firmly to the substrate surface (such as paper, plastic film) to prevent being pulled off along with the adhesive during use. Through its formula design and synergistic effect with anchorage curing agents, this product can form strong adhesion on the surfaces of many common substrates. This excellent anchoring ability ensures the integrity of the release layer itself, avoiding failure phenomena such as coating transfer or peeling off, and forms the foundation for the long-lasting, stable performance of the release function.
Finally, its core functionality is manifested as "easy release." The fundamental purpose of a release agent is to provide controllable, moderate release force. Through precise silicone chemistry design, IOTA 22300 can achieve an adjustable range from light to heavy release force to meet the needs of different adhesives and final applications. Whether it requires extremely smooth release for lightweight labels or a certain holding force to prevent slippage during transport for heavy-duty tapes, an appropriate balance can be found by adjusting the formula and process parameters. This "easy release" characteristic directly translates into a good user experience and production efficiency for downstream users when handling the final product.
In summary, Emulsion-Based Release Agent IOTA 22300 is not a simple chemical product but a systematic solution developed for modern industrial release needs. It integrates efficient and fast curing capability, stable and reliable production adaptability, broad and strong substrate adhesion, and precise and controllable release performance. From the winding of pressure-sensitive tapes to the safe packaging of food, from precise label application to complex industrial molding, it plays an indispensable role behind the scenes. By providing an invisible yet crucial barrier, it ensures the smooth operation of countless industrial processes and the reliable performance of end products. It is one of the key auxiliary materials for enhancing production efficiency, ensuring product quality, and achieving green and safe production.
