Trimethylsiloxyphenyl Dimethicone is a clear viscous liquid that provides increased compatibility with cosmetic ingredients and chemical stability to oxidation. Its features considerably reduced the effects of skin penetration and oral inhalation due to its higher molecular weight and lower content of volatiles when compared with other commercial phenyl dimethicone fluids, which are of increased concern in personal care formulas.
It has a 1.445 - 1.455 refractive index and can be used as a gloss agent. Trimethylsiloxyphenyl Dimethicone is an excellent ingredient for hair gloss sprays, skincare, and makeup formulas with luster, soft, and non-tacky attributes.
