Silsoft* ETS trisiloxane is a highly volatile linear siloxane that provides an outstanding sensory experience. It spreads easily and rapidly and feels dry and light upon application. Silsoft* ETS trisiloxane, as a multifunctional raw material, can help build personal care products that provide highly valued sensory benefits.
Features & Benefits:
- A high volatility profile that provides a quick rub in with a dry, light after feel.
- Can be formulated into sprayable compositions to provide uniform coverage, reduced run-down of formulations, and enhance sensory properties
- Lowers the surface tension of common personal care emollients and oils, which can aid the ease of formulation spreading.
- Improves pigment dispersion within the oil phase to help provide better overall coverage in color cosmetics and better uniform coverage of inorganic sunscreens.
