In the process of continuous upgrading of skincare products, sun protection products and makeup products towards lighter texture, refreshing experience and stable formulations, multi-functional raw materials that possess thickening, skin sensation regulation and oil control functions are becoming an important direction for the innovation of personal care product formulas. The product 9607 of our company, an organic silicone elastomer gel with INCI names of cyclic pentamethicon and polydimethylsiloxane cross-linked polymer, and polydimethylsiloxane/vinyl polydimethylsiloxane cross-linked polymer and polydimethylsiloxane alcohol, as a highly transparent organic silicone elastomer gel, with its velvety smooth sensation, refreshing and non-greasy skin sensation, and thickening properties in oil-based systems, demonstrates significant application value in personal care products such as skincare, sun protection, makeup and hair care, providing an efficient and flexible basic raw material option for cosmetic formula design.
I. Core Physical and Chemical Properties and Technical Specifications
Product organic silicone elastomer gel 9607 is a colorless semi-transparent gel, with a non-volatile content of 14% to 17%, and a viscosity of 250,000 to 450,000 centipoises at 25 degrees Celsius. This product is a mixture of cyclic siloxane and polydimethylsiloxane cross-linked polymers, polydimethylsiloxane/vinyl polydimethylsiloxane cross-linked polymers and polydimethylsiloxane alcohol. Its high transparency gives it a unique advantage in products that require a transparent formulation. The product has a slight sebum absorption property, which can help maintain a清爽 skin surface.
II. Core Performance Advantages and Formula Value
Product organic silicone elastomer gel 9607 demonstrates the following core performance advantages in personal care product formulas:
Velvety smooth sensation, refreshing and non-greasy skin sensation. This product can give the formula a unique velvety touch and dryness experience, reducing the stickiness of the formula system and improving the comfort and acceptance of the product, especially suitable for sun protection, oil control and summer products.
It has thickening effects in water/oil, water/silicone oil systems. Whether in oil-in-water or water-in-oil emulsion systems, or water-in-silicone oil systems, this product can effectively increase the viscosity of the system, improving the texture and stability of the product.
It can be processed at room temperature. The product can be dispersed and mixed at room temperature without heating, simplifying the production process and reducing energy consumption.
III. Main Application Areas and Recommended Dosages
Product organic silicone elastomer gel 9607 can play an important role in the following personal care product application areas, including:
1. Skincare products. In moisturizing creams, oil-control lotions, essences and sunscreen products, the product can provide a refreshing sensation and velvety smooth sensation, with a recommended dosage of 1% to 20% of the total formula.
2. Makeup products. In foundation liquids, BB creams, primer creams and makeup-preparation lotions, the product can enhance the smoothness and feel of the makeup, helping to soften fine lines and pores.
3. Hair care products. In hair conditioners, hair masks and hair essence, the product can improve the smoothness and shine of the hair, giving a velvety touch.
4. Application Method and Process Suggestions
Directly disperse this product in the oil phase (silicone oil or organic oil) of the formula and mix well. No subsequent shearing processing is required. In the formula of emulsified products, directly add to the oil phase or silicone oil raw materials. It is recommended to homogenize the oil phase separately before emulsification, or slowly pour the dispersed oil phase into this product while stirring appropriately. If the viscosity of the entire dispersed phase can ensure the dispersion of this product, it can be added later. During heating operations, they should be carried out in a sealed container, and the heating time should not be too long. It is recommended that the operating temperature does not exceed 60°C to avoid the volatilization of cyclic pentamethicon. After long-term storage, this product will thicken, and under shear force, it will become thinner, which is a normal physical phenomenon.
IV. Quality Assurance and Application Value
Product silicone elastomer gel 9607 has established a strict quality control system during the production process. It conducts full-process testing on key indicators such as product appearance, non-volatile content, and viscosity to ensure consistency and reliability between batches. As the skincare, sunscreen, and makeup industries continue to evolve towards lighter texture, refreshing experience, and stable formulations, this product, with its unique colorless semi-transparent gel form, excellent thickening performance, and silky-smooth skin sensation characteristics, is becoming an important basic raw material option in the development of sunscreen products, moisturizing creams, and makeup products. It provides powerful formulation support to drive product innovation and skin sensation upgrade in personal care products.
