Silsoft* Silicones for Personal Care - While Momentive silicones have long benefited personal care products with softness and smoothness, our scientists continually improve upon this foundation and engineer new or enhanced value-adding features into our functionalized silicone products. Our Silsoft silicone fluids portfolio has captured such features in products that can also perform effectively at low use levels and, therefore enable impressive potential cost efficiencies. Silsoft silicone fluids can help provide unique sensory enhancement while delivering superior smoothness, protection and shine, flawless coverage, and a soft, rich texture

Momentive 's CoatOSil additives portfolio provides a broad range of products to address a large range of performance needs in the coatings industry. CoatOSil additives can improve coating processability and help enhance surface appearance. Momentive tailors the structure of each CoatOSil additive molecule and produces a variety of grades with differing utility in water or solvent borne coating application, whether the most critical properties are related to foam control, anti blocking, wetting, slip or flow and leveling.

Silopren* Liquid Silicone Rubber - Momentive’s extensive Silopren liquid silicone rubber is a portfolio of platinum catalyzed materials designed to cure rapidly by heating in standard injection molding equipment. This versatile family of elastomers can deliver solutions to a wide range of applications across multiple industries ranging from automotive to energy and consumer goods to health care.

SilForm* Fluids - Momentive’s SilForm fluids can help achieve a highly beneficial combination of comfort and long-lasting reliability.
