Appearance: Clear to slightly translucent gel Penetration degree (1/10mm): 300-450 Non-volatile content (%, w/w): 9-14 Viscosity(cP, S94, 2.5RPM, 25ºC): 300,000-800,000 |
Applications
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 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 60ºC.
• 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%.
