Silicone Uses

Dry Cleaning
Silicone is an odorless, colorless, non-oily cleaning agent in dry cleaning. It carries detergent to clothes and rinses away suspended dirt and oils trapped by the detergent. It does not interact with textiles and therefore helps maintain the quality and color of dry-cleaned clothes.
