Application Details
  • BELSIL EG 6000 is typically added to the oil or silicone phase of a formulation or to an already formed emulsion. The product should be worked in thoroughly to yield optimal results. When BELSIL® EG 6000 is diluted with solvents the viscosity of the product is significantly decreasing and can hence be easily adjusted.
  • The performance properties of BELSIL ® EG 6000 make it a very versatile ingredient for various skin care and color cosmetic products. It also can add a cushiony feel to moisturizing creams, eye gels, foundations, concealers and BB creams.
  • BELSIL® EG 6000 can be used to thicken the oil phase of emulsions or anhydrous cosmetic formulations. In pressed powder cosmetics it acts as binder. Other typical applications of BELSIL® EG 6000 are styling products, conditioners, deodorants and much more.

Processing

BELSIL® EG 6000 is a high viscous material and is highly shear-thinning. Upon storage, the viscosity of BELSIL® EG 6000 may increase. However as the viscosity data vary significantly depending on how the gel is stirred prior the measurement. We recommend to thoroughly mix BELSIL® EG 6000 before any viscosity measurement. If the product is stored for an extended period of time, we also recommend to well stir the product before use.
