Product Highlights

Andisil® Linear Siloxanes for personal care offer comparable properties to cyclic siloxanes. As the viscosity of the fluid increases the volatility decreases. These are linear carriers that mimic the properties of cyclic siloxanes providing emolliency and water resistance to lotions and creams when used in skin care applications.
