Physicochemical scale inhibitor apparatus comprising a flock-preventive mesh for steam irons

A steam iron with a water flow path, the at least one portion containing a scale inhibitor (305) which is formed by a scored with a hydrophilic active substance and a polyorganosiloxane by means of crosslinking or curing of a water vapor permeable organosilicon silicone elastomer, wherein the iron further comprises a grid (203), which is arranged provided near the evaporation zone a in a metallic soleplate (100) steam chamber (2) which consists of a metal other than the heating element and flows through which the vapor flow
