In what areas can dimethicones be used?
Dimethicone, also known as polydimethylsiloxane, is a hydrophobic silicone material with the appearance of a colorless or light yellow liquid, and its structural formula:
It has high transparency, light transmittance of 100% light transmittance, heat resistance, cold resistance, viscosity with temperature change is small, water resistance, surface tension is small, with thermal conductivity, thermal conductivity of 0.134-0.159W/M*K, physiological inertia, good chemical stability. Electrical insulation and weather resistance, good hydrophobicity, and has a high shear resistance, can be used for a long time at -50 ℃ ~ 200 ℃. Today, we go into the strong chemical together, together to understand the dimethyl silicone oil in different areas of application!
Dimethicone oil
Application in skin care cosmetics
Dimethicone oil has been widely used in cosmetics, skin care products, care products, hair care products, the use of the following:
Non-toxic, odorless, tasteless
01
It does not affect the appearance and aroma of the final products, and does not cause irritation and allergy to the skin;
It has very good sense of lightness of use and stretchability.
02
The use of medium-viscosity methyl silicone oil in a variety of skin care products can improve the stretchability of cosmetics on the skin, and play a protective effect on the skin;
Very good hydrophobicity and smoothness.
03
Silicone oil formulated hair care products such as hair oil, hair cream, mousse, etc., can make any temperature of the hair combed into the desired hairstyle, and can effectively prevent the external moisture infiltration or water evaporation imbalance;
Good resistance to ultraviolet radiation
04
It will not oxidize and deteriorate under ultraviolet rays and cause irritating effect on skin, and it will not be lost due to seawater bathing or sweating, so it can effectively prevent the harm of ultraviolet rays.
No irritation to skin, high safety to human body
05
It has certain effect on certain skin diseases, such as eczema neurodermatitis and occupational dermatitis with difficulty in sweating;
Have good gas permeability and anti-static elimination
06
Rubbed skin containing polysiloxane skin cream static electricity all eliminated, and have obvious dustproof effect good gas permeability, even if the formation of silicone film on the skin does not affect the sweat discharge, hindering the skin breathing;
Chemical stability
07
With other cosmetic raw materials do not react, added silicone oil foundation cream, can protect the skin from pigments, solvents.
