When preparing stable, great-feeling water-in-oil (W/O) or silicone-in-water (W/Si) systems, emulsifier choice is the heart of the formulation. IOTA 99366 Lauryl PEG-9 Polydimethylsiloxyethyl Dimethicone is a lipophilic, alkyl-modified polyether dimethicone designed for highly stable, silky, non-greasy personal care products — ideal for sunscreens, color cosmetics, and skin care.
This product is a lipophilic alkyl-modified polyether dimethicone. It offers excellent W/Si and W/O emulsifying capacity, good emulsification of both silicone oils and non‑silicone esters, outstanding emulsion stability, and excellent dispersing power for powder raw materials.
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Excellent W/Si & W/O emulsifying capacity | Stably emulsifies high silicone oil phases and polar oil phases — broad compatibility |
| Easy emulsification, low‑temperature processing | No heating required; cold‑processable — simplifies manufacturing, saves energy |
| Outstanding powder dispersion | Evenly disperses physical sunscreens, pigments, etc. — prevents agglomeration |
| Silky, non‑greasy skin feel | Provides a light, soft, dry, non‑sticky application experience |
| Superior emulsion stability | Withstands temperature changes and long‑term storage — maintains system integrity |
