BELSIL® R 220

1 of 72 products in this brand
BELSIL® R 220 is a solid phenyl silicone resin primarily designed as a film former for color cosmetic applications, with a specific focus on nail polish. It combines the desirable film-forming properties of silicone resins with a remarkable high gloss and shine. Thanks to the presence of phenyl groups, BELSIL® R 220 achieves a significantly higher level of gloss compared to standard silicone resins. Moreover, when compared to other phenylated silicone resins, BELSIL® R 220 exhibits improved solubility, particularly in solvents commonly utilized in nail polish formulations like ethyl acetate and butyl acetate.
