Product Description

INCI Name: Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone

This series product is a lipophilic alkyl-containing polyether dimethicone, an emulsifier with excellent W/Si and W/O emulsifying capabilities. It provides good emulsification for both silicone oils and other oils and fats, and has exceptional dispersing ability for powdered ingredients. Formulations with low emulsifier content and high water content can achieve good water-release performance.

ALOS-SILI-196

Key Features

  • Excellent W/Si and W/O emulsifying capabilities

Applications

This product can be used in a variety of personal care products, including skincare, cosmetics, and sunscreen.

Usage

  • Under rapid stirring, slowly add the aqueous phase in portions to the oil phase, and stir thoroughly.
  • Increasing the stirring speed can improve the stability of the emulsion system.
  • Adding antifreeze agents, such as propylene glycol or glycerin, can enhance the freeze resistance of the product.
  • Increasing the aqueous phase ratio will raise the viscosity of the system.
  • Before emulsifying with water, first mix the oil and emulsifier thoroughly.
  • If all ingredients are in liquid form, emulsification can be done at room temperature without homogenization; quick stirring will yield a stable emulsion.
  • Adding an electrolyte solution (0.5-2% sodium chloride) to the aqueous phase can improve the storage stability of the emulsion system.
