In cosmetic formulations, the choice of surfactants directly affects the product's user experience and efficacy. IOTA 1291 water-soluble silicone oil, as an efficient polyether-modified organosilicone surfactant, has become the "invisible guardian" in cosmetic formulations due to its low surface tension, excellent hydrophilicity, and antistatic properties.
Product Characteristics:
IOTA 1291 is a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid with low surface tension (23 mN/m, 25°C) and excellent water solubility. It can be mixed with water, ethanol, acetone, and other solvents in any ratio. Its unique chemical structure allows it to form a thin, breathable protective layer on the skin or hair, significantly enhancing the lubrication and smoothness of the product.
Application Areas and Problem-Solving:
Skincare Products:
IOTA 1291 forms a lightweight, breathable protective layer on the skin, improving the spreadability and absorbability of skincare products. It addresses the greasiness and poor absorption issues found in traditional formulations.
Haircare Products:
In conditioners and shampoos, IOTA 1291 improves wet and dry combing properties, giving hair a soft, smooth feel, solving the issues of dryness and tangling.
Cosmetic Products:
In foundation and primer formulations, IOTA 1291 improves product spreadability and adherence, making the makeup appear more natural and long-lasting, addressing issues such as makeup wear and adhesion problems.
Usage:
In cosmetic formulations, the recommended dosage is 0.5%-1.0%, with the exact dosage adjusted according to product requirements.
Packaging and Storage:
IOTA 1291 is packaged in 25kg, 50kg plastic drums, or 200kg steel drums. During storage, moisture and contamination should be avoided. Under sealed and room temperature conditions, the shelf life is two years.
