Solubility:Insoluble in water, partly soluble in alcohol, dispersible in oils & fats
Preservation:Preservative-free
Storage:Store in a closed container at a dry place at room temperature
Country of Origin:Chian
Raw Material Source:Dimethyldichlorosilane and water
Manufacture:Dimethicone is made from dimethyldichlorosilane which is produced by powdered silicon (silicone dioxide) and methyl chloride. Dimethyldichlorosilane is then hydrolyzed to give a hydrolysate mixture of polysiloxanes. In a polymerization reaction with water the polysiloxanes are then polymerized to a linear silicone polymer (dimethicone).

HS Code:3208100000

Description

Dimethicone Fluid is a 100% active linear silicone polymer with a viscosity of only 10 cps. Usually, linear silicones are large high-molecular polymers (polydimethylsiloxanes) and are viscous and more oil-like, whereas this special dimethicone is a non-viscous form.

Benefits

  • Used for its low viscosity in various liquid, low-viscous skin and hair care products
  • Will take out the whitening of creams and lotions when rubbed into the skin
  • Gives a non-greasy, dry feel
  • Improves wet and dry combing and gives softness and a silky gloss to the hair
  • Makes colors more dispersible (acts as solvent)

Use

Typical use level 1-20% (up to 50% possible), add to oil phase of formulas or at the end of formula. Do not heat over 50°C (125°F). For external use only.

Applications

Hair & skin conditioning products as shampoos, conditioners, creams, lotions, but also color cosmetics. Skin protectant products.
