1 of 72 products in this brand
BELSIL® DM 100000 is a linear, non-reactive, unmodified polydimethylsiloxane. It is a dimethicone with a viscosity of 100,000 mm²/s, characterized by low surface tension and a high spreading coefficient. Due to its flexible polymer backbone, this dimethicone has high permeability to gasses (e.g. water, vapor, oxygen), which allows respiration of the skin.

Application Details
  • High-viscosity BELSIL® DM 100000 is widely used in a diverse range of personal-care formulations. Dimethicones provide a hydrophobic, protective, but breathable barrier for the skin, imparting softness and emolliency.
  • They improve spreading characteristics, enhance luster, and prevent stickiness in skin-care as well as in color-cosmetics compositions. In hair-care products, high-viscosity dimethicones are among the most commonly used conditioning additives.
  • They improve both wet and dry combability, impart humidity resistance and a soft feel to the hair, and enhance shine.
