Recommended Uses: BRB DM 0.65 can be used as a delivery system in antiperspirant/deodorant formulations. It helps to uniformly spread actives and pigments over the surface of hair, skin and sun care. It is largely used in color-cosmetic formulations to improve rub-in properties, reducing stickiness, and imparting lubricity and a smooth skin feel and is recommended for nail polish products.
Usage Guidelines: BRB DM 0.65 may be used alone or blended with other cosmetic fluids to provide a fluid base for a variety of cosmetic ingredients. It features good solubility in most anhydrous alcohols and in many cosmetic solvents. Care should be taken when handling volatile fluids at temperatures 10°C below the quoted flash point.

Properties

Technical Details & Test Data

Volatility Profile
Heat of Vaporization: The heat of vaporization in Table 1 is directly related to the amount of energy which is extracted from the surface of the skin and perceived as cooling as the substance is volatilized. As the volatile siloxanes evaporate they remove very little heat from the skin compared to alcohols or water avoiding this potentially undesirable cooling effect.
