In the field of cosmetic raw material research and development, an innovative achievement is quietly transforming the formulation design of skincare products. IOTA 1291 Water-Soluble Silicone Oil, with its unique performance characteristics, offers a brand-new solution for the cosmetics industry.

As a special organosilicon surfactant based on polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane, IOTA 1291 features complete water solubility, allowing it to mix with water in any proportion while also being easily soluble in ethanol, acetone, and other solvents commonly used in cosmetics. Its low surface tension (23 mN/m at 25°C) and excellent hydrophilicity enable it to form a uniform, breathable protective film on the skin, providing an unprecedented user experience for skincare products.

In cosmetic applications, adding 0.5% to 1.0% of IOTA 1291 can significantly enhance product performance. This ingredient helps keep the skin soft and smooth while providing excellent wet and dry combability, making it particularly suitable for hair care, body care, and facial skincare products. Its cloud point of 42°C (1% aqueous solution) ensures product stability across different usage temperatures.

The product consists of 100% active ingredients, appears as a colorless to light yellow transparent liquid, and has a refractive index of 1.448 to 1.458, fully meeting the high standards required for cosmetic raw materials. For products requiring special anti-stick effects, adjusting the dosage to 2% to 4% can achieve the desired results.

It is understood that IOTA 1291 has already been included in the raw material procurement lists of several well-known cosmetics companies for developing a new generation of high-end skincare and hair care products. The product is packaged in 25 kg and 50 kg plastic drums or 200 kg iron drums, with a shelf life of up to two years under sealed, room-temperature conditions, fully meeting the quality requirements of cosmetic production.

Industry experts believe that as consumers increasingly demand both safety and efficacy in cosmetics, raw materials like IOTA 1291, which combine excellent performance and good biocompatibility, will play an increasingly important role in future cosmetic innovations.
