Easy to handle blend of high molecular weight Diphenyl Dimethicone. The cyclopentasiloxane part will rapidly evaporate, while the Diphenyl Dimethicone part will remain on the skin or on hair providing an increased substantivity and conditioning effect.
- Key Benefits
- In skin care emulsions it will impart a unique silky feel.
- MIRASIL™ C-DPDM also helps to improve the water-resistance properties and the long-lasting effect for sunscreens in sun care products.
- MIRASIL™ C-DPDM confers antistatic and gloss effects to hair formulations and leaves the hair with a very soft feel.
- Its compatibility with vegetable oils and its substantivity to skin are most useful for creams containing lipophilic plant extracts, natural oils and lipophilic agents.
- Recommended use levels: Creams and emulsions O/W or W/O : approx. 10% Hair products: 2 – 10% for hair rinse – 60% minimum for a protecting effect (e.g. cuticle coat).
