Description
IOTA 96004 Silicone Resin Elastomer Gel silicone resin
elastomer gel is non-emulsified siloxane reticulate copolymer, containing
non-volatile low-viscosity polydimethylsiloxane. This product provides
comfortable and smooth feel and can be used as the thickening agent in the
formulation.
Technical index
Appearance: Translucent gel
Non-volatile content (%, w/w): 15~25
Viscosity(cP, S94, 2.5RPM, 25℃): 150,000~500,000
Applications
This product can be used in skin care, hair care and
sunscreen products.
How to use?
IOTA 96004 Silicone Resin Elastomer Gel 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, or post-added to emulsions provided the emulsion is
viscous enough for the products to be dispersed.
For ease use, blending with dimethicone, cyclomethicone,
phenylmethicone, fatty acid ester or hydrocarbon to reduce its viscosity.
When heating, the material should be processed in an
enclosed vessel to prevent the volatility.
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 recommended usage level is 1~20%.
