-
DOWSIL™ 9040 Silicone Elastomer Blend
A mixture of high molecular weight silicone elastomers (dimethicone crosspolymer) in cyclopentasiloxane for use in skincare, haircare, color cosmetics, suncare, antiperspirants and deodorants, and woundcare applications. INCI Name: Cyclopentasiloxane (and) Dimethicone Crosspolymer
-
DOWSIL™ AP-8087 Fluid
This amino functional siloxane polymer can be used in a range of hair care applications including shampoos, rinse-off conditioners, leave-in conditioning treatments, colorants, and styling products. It has lower amine content and higher molecular weight compared to other amino silicones. This fluid provides improvements in both wet and dry combing in both shampoos and rinse-off conditioners. When used in a rinse-off conditioner it reduces the loss of color in colored hair. In addition, when used in leave-on applications, it enhances hair shine and smoothness and reduces hair static. INCI Name: Bis-Hydroxy/Methoxy Amodimethicone
