PEL-SIL™ Bis-PEG-12 is a linear, 100% active, dimethicone terminated with PEG-12 polyether groups. It is dispersible in water and is used in applications where lubricity, softness and conditioning are required. It finds use in personal care, household products, textile finishing and leather processing. Excellent surface tension reducer, it can boost foam quantity and stability in a multitude of personal care applications. It provides additional benefits such as moisturizing, emollience and a soft silky feel on hair and skin. It may also be used as a reagent to modify polymeric systems by virtue of its two primary hydroxyls. In these systems, it provides the typical benefits of silicones that include slip, mar resistance, anti-blocking, softness and improved temperature stability to the finish polymer.

PEL-SIL™ Q-80 is a quaternary organosilicone that is substantive to hair and skin. In hair care formulations, it acts as a conditioning and anti-static agent, improving the combability, gloss, and manageability of hair. In skin care products, PEL-SIL™ Q-80 performs as an emollient, a slip aid, and imparts a smooth feel. It is recommended for evaluation in shampoos, conditioners, lotions, and liquid soaps.

PEL-SIL™ Q-80-S is a quaternary organosilicone that is substantive to hair and skin. In hair care formulations, it acts as a conditioning and anti-static agent, improving the combability, gloss, and manageability of hair. In skin care products, PEL-SIL™ Q-80-S performs as an emollient, a slip aid, and imparts a smooth feel. It is recommended for evaluation in shampoos, conditioners, lotions, and liquid soaps. PEL-SIL™ Q-80-S is provided as a 50% active solution in renewably-sourced, sustainable Propanediol.

PEL-SIL™ PEG-10 has a wide range of applications in personal care products including, hair sprays and other leave-in hair products, shampoos, skin care lotions & shaving soaps. It is stable in neutral or mildly acid or alkaline aqueous solutions. Its stability is reduced by strong acid or alkali. PEL-SIL™ PEG-10 is used as a plasticizer for hair resins used in styling products. It forms dense stable foam in aqueous products and it is an effective wetting agent and emulsifier. Additionally, it imparts a soft silky feel to the hair and functions as a humectant and emollient in skin products.

PEL-SIL™ PEG-8 has a wide range of applications in personal care products including, hair sprays and other leave-in hair products, shampoos, skin care lotions, shaving creams and hand sanitizing gels. It is stable in neutral or mildly acid or alkaline aqueous solutions, but stability is reduced by strong acid or alkali. PEL-SIL™ PEG-8 is used as a plasticizer for hair resins used in styling products. It also detackifies ingredients used in some formulations while providing emolliency and slip to carbomer-based formulations. Additionally, it imparts a soft silky feel to the hair.

PEL-SIL™ SFD is a sunflower derived product in which sunflower fatty acids and dimethicone have been grafted together to provide the benefits of both. Because of its dual nature, PEL-SIL™ SFD is highly compatible with both natural oil-based and silicone-based ingredients. In skin care products, PEL-SIL™ SFD performs as an emollient, a slip aid, and reduces tackiness and provides a smooth skin feel. In hair care products, it increases sheen, improves wet-combing and detangling, and gives increased softness and suppleness to the hair. PEL-SIL™ SFD is easily emulsifiable and can be used to ease the incorporation of highly lipophobic silicones into formulations. PEL-SIL™ SFD is PEG free, prop-65 free, preservative free, and palm free. It has a renewable carbon content of 50%.

PEL-SIL™ PEPG-1818 is a multipurpose organosilicone surfactant that provides slip, mar resistance and antiblocking properties to surfaces such as polyolefins and coatings, paints and inks. It improves leveling and reduces orange peel, increases gloss and provides a smooth feel to surfaces. This product is soluble in both water and solvent borne formulations and is stable at roughly neutral pH. Stability is reduced by exposure to strong acid or alkali. There is no hydroxyl functionality because all the terminal hydroxyls are acetate capped so PEL-SIL™ PEPG-1818 is non-reactive. In personal care, PEL-SIL™ PEPG-1818 is used as a plasticizer for hair resins used in styling products. It is also an effective humectant and emollient for skin care products. It yields very stable formulations, is a good wetting agent, requires low usage levels and is compatible with a wide range of other materials. Being a higher molecular weight polymer, PEL-SIL™ PEPG-1818 has a low order of toxicity.

PEL-SIL™ PEG-8L has a wide range of applications in personal care products including, hair sprays and other leave-in hair products, shampoos, skin care lotions & shaving creams. It is stable in neutral or mildly acid or alkaline aqueous solutions but stability is reduced by strong acid or alkali. It performs as a wetting agent, emulsifier and a foam builder. PEL-SIL™ PEG-8L is used as a plasticizer for hair resins used in styling products. It also detackifies ingredients used in some formulations while providing emolliency and slip to carbomer-based formulations. Additionally, it imparts a soft silky feel to the hair.

PEL-SIL™ SMDC is an organosilicone wax consisting of a short dimethicone chain with pendant stearoxy groups. Physically, it is a soft white wax which melts slightly below body temperature. PEL-SIL™ SMDC performs as an emollient, a slip aid, and contributes to hydrophobicity in skin care and makeup formulations. It is recommended for evaluation in antiperspirant sticks, lipstick and other makeup products as well as creams and lotions.
