Dimethicone, also known as polydimethylsiloxane, is a hydrophobic silicone material. It is a colorless or light yellow liquid, odorless, highly transparent, heat-resistant, cold-resistant, and has little viscosity change with temperature. , waterproof, low surface tension, thermal conductivity and light transmittance.
Dimethicone is non-toxic, odorless, physiologically inert and has good chemical stability. It has good electrical insulation, weather resistance, hydrophobicity, and high shear resistance, and can be used for a long time at -50°C to 200°C.
The excellent physical and chemical properties of dimethyl silicone oil can be widely used in various fields.
In cosmetics, the moisturizing polysiloxane of dimethicone, also known as silicone or silicone oil, has lubricating properties, anti-ultraviolet effects, good breathability, and obvious dust-proof function. It is also used in cosmetics. It replaces traditional oil raw materials and has very good penetration into the skin. Skin care products can feel smooth and refreshing when applied to the skin.
Low viscosity dimethicone has a lighter skin feel because of its lower viscosity. The refreshing and non-sticky skin care and hair care products we use every day use low-viscosity dimethicone. Among the hair care and shampoo products, it can deepen the color of the hair and help the hair maintain its natural luster. This product is non-toxic and non-irritating to the skin and mucous membranes, but it is irritating to the eyes and is generally recognized as safe.
