Description

This product is a mixture of high molecular weight DimethiconeCrosspolymer

(and) Dimethicone/Vinyl DimethiconeCrosspolymer in Cyclopentasiloxane. It is a slightly translucent gel, which could be dispersed in oil phase. The product may be formulated into W/O emulsions, water-in-silicone oil, and O/W emulsions and anhydrous products to provide dry smoothness and a light silky skin, non-greasy feel.

Technical index

Appearance: slightly translucent gel

Non-volatile content (%, w/w): 14~17

Viscosity(cP, S94, 2.5RPM, 25℃): 250,000~450,000

Application

This product can be used in skin care, hair care, and other potential formulations,

such as sun care, color cosmetics, and styling aid, etc.

How to use?

This product could be dispersed into the oil-phase using simple mixing.

It can be added to the oil phase or silicone phase in an emulsion formulation.

It can be post-added to emulsions provided the emulsion is viscous enoughfor the products to be dispersed.

For ease use, blending with Dimethicone or cyclomethicone to reduce itsviscosity.

When heat is used, the material should be processed in an enclosed vesselto prevent the cylcopentasiloxane from volatilizing.

The recommended processing temperature is not over 60℃.

The product would become very thick or even lumpy after a period of time. This is normal and it will recovery to original state after slightly agitate.

The suggested usage level is 1-20%
