Description

This product is a mixture of high molecular weight Dimethicone/VinyldimethiconeCrosspolymer with Cyclopentasiloxane, Bis-PEG-12 Dimethicone, Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethicone. It is a white gel having self-emulsifying effect due to hydrophilic modified part, which allow it to be formulated into W/O emulsions, W/Si emulsions, and O/W emulsions, to provide dry smoothness and a light silky skin, non-greasy feel when applied in eye cream, essence, etc.

Applications

Various kinds of personal care products such as facial mask, water cream and essence.

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 enough for the products to be dispersed.

•      For ease use, blending with Dimethicone or Cyclomethicone to reduce its viscosity.

•      When heat is used, the material should be processed in an enclosed vessel to prevent the Cylcopentasiloxane from volatilizing.

•      The recommended processing temperature should not be 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 recommended usage level is 1%-20%.
