The present invention relates to a silicone emulsion comprising (I) a water soluble ammonium siloxane composition comprising (A) an aminosiloxane solution comprising a mixture of (i) a triorganosilyl-endblocked aminofunctional siloxane, (ii) an aminofunctional siloxane which it triorganosiloxy-endblocked at one end and hydroxy-endblocked at the other end, and (iii) a hydroxy-endblocked aminofunctional siloxane, (B) a cyclic aminofunctional siloxane, and (C) a polydimethylcyclosiloxane where the aminofunctional group is selected from <IMAGE> ocarbon radical, R4 is a divalent hydrocarbon radical, R5 is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, or arylalkyl, R6 is a -C(O)R7 group where R7 is a monovalent hydrocarbon group or aryl, and A- is a halide anion, carboxylate anion, or inorganic oxoanion, and (II) an organopolysiloxane emulsion. This invention further relates to a method of making the silicone emulsion, and to a method of treating a substrate with the silicone emulsion. |
