Dear Sir,

Silicones Plays an Important role on Fabric. With Silicones One can get feel which he wants. Like softness, suppleness, Bounciness, Crease-Recovery, Hydrophillisity etc.

In Short, as Salt is important for Food even though it is used in very little qty, it changes the taste, same way Silicones play a vital role on fabric for its feel.

Thanks,
