Oil phase flexibility for the emulsification of silicone and organic oils and their mixture
How to Use: The recommended addition level of DOWSIL ES-5600 Silicone Glycerol Emulsifier is 2% for emulsions with a high level of water phase. Decreasing the water phase level will require increasing the emulsifier addition level.

Thanks to its broad compatibility with silicone and organic oils and its low viscosity, DOWSIL ES-5600 Silicone Glycerol Emulsifier is easily dispersed in the oil phase prior the addition of the water phase.

Stable emulsions can be prepared by slowly adding water phase to the oil phase containing DOWSIL ES-5600 Silicone Glycerol Emulsifier using a variety of common mixing devices.

High shear mixing at the end of the emulsification process helps to decrease the particle size and increase the stability of the emulsion.
