IOTA 9600B is a silicone gel composed of a dimethicone/vinyl dimethicone crosspolymer dispersed in low-viscosity dimethicone. It uses low-viscosity dimethicone rather than cyclic silicones as the dispersion medium, providing a longer-lasting skin feel. With an elastomer content of approximately 20%, it functions as an efficient thickener in W/O systems. Slight thickening may occur after extended storage, but this does not affect performance.
IOTA 9600B delivers a silky smooth feel and can be processed either with heating or at ambient temperature, offering broad processing flexibility. It is widely used in skincare, sun care, color cosmetics, and antiperspirant series.

✅ Long-lasting silky feel – non-cyclic silicone dispersion medium for extended skin feel
✅ W/O thickening – high elastomer content (~20%) provides excellent thickening efficiency
✅ Hot or cold processing – flexible manufacturing options
✅ Easy to use – add directly to oil phase and homogenize
✅ Good stability – slight thickening does not affect performance
✅ Wide application range – skincare, sun care, color cosmetics, antiperspirants
Skincare: Creams, lotions, serums
Sun Care: Sunscreens, sun lotions
Color Cosmetics: Foundations, primers, makeup bases
Antiperspirant series
When formulating emulsions or creams, IOTA 9600B can be added directly to the oil phase. Moderate heating may be applied to facilitate dispersion. A homogenizer is recommended to ensure complete and uniform dispersion of the material.
✅ Non-cyclic silicone system – longer-lasting and safer skin feel
✅ High elastomer content – excellent thickening performance
✅ Silky, non-greasy feel – enhances product texture
✅ Suitable for hot or cold processing – flexible production
✅ Versatile – suitable for skincare, sun care, color cosmetics, and antiperspirants
