Are you familiar with the application of medium-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil in creams, high-viscosity and ultra-high-viscosity dimethyl silicone oils in hair washing and hair care, and low-viscosity dimethyl silicone oils in makeup and skin care formulations?
Generally, we will choose different cosmetics depending on the nature of the skin and the season. Dry skin or autumn and winter are more suitable for moisturizing and hydrating products. Oily skin or hot summer are more suitable for refreshing texture. According to different market needs, formulators also make products with different viscosities. When developing refreshing skin feel products, low-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil has become the preferred oil for formulators.
In fact, with the increase of the degree of polymerization, the viscosity of dimethyl silicone oil will also increase, low viscosity dimethyl silicone oil generally includes three viscosity of 5, 10, 20 cSt. Compared with conventional medium-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil (50, 100, 200, 350, 500, 1000 cSt), low-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil has a fresher skin because of its lower viscosity. The fresh, non-sticky skin care and hair care products we use every day use low-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil.
In addition to the advantages of skin feel, low-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil will also be more convenient in the formulation process, which is due to the compatibility advantages brought by low viscosity. Experiments have confirmed that the low-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil is perfectly compatible with the commonly used 26 # and 15 # white oils, thus avoiding the emulsification problems caused by the conventional medium-viscosity dimethyl silicone oil. Excellent compatibility, light skin feel, and excellent dissolving properties for a variety of common oils and fats, making low-viscosity dimethyl silicone oils applicable to water-in-oil, oil-in-water, and full-oil systems, said to be skin care and hair care All-purpose grease is also worthy of the name!
