BELSIL® REG 1103 B is a hydrophilic resin elastomer gel that consists of a silicone copolymer network blended with a non-volatile, low-viscosity dimethicone and a silicone polyglucoside. The inclusion of silicone polyglucoside, a nonionic surfactant with an HLB (hydrophilic-lipophilic balance) value of approximately 6-7, enables the gel to absorb water and function as a secondary emulsifier. This transparent gel offers a pleasant sensory experience, both during and after application. BELSIL® REG 1103 B serves as an effective thickener in formulations while providing a smooth application. Additionally, it demonstrates shear-thinning behavior, facilitating the easy spreading of cosmetic products during application and aiding in the incorporation of pigments into formulations.
