DESCRIPTION
CICLODIMETICONE

Cyclomethicone is a synthetic polymer whose basic structure is made of chains of alternating oxygen and silicon atoms with variable organic substituents (methyls). Its four basic properties are stability, safety, affinity for the skin and water repellency.

Practical formulation guide
Usage level: Variable, depending on the application.
How to use and incorporate: Add to the oil phase or at the end of the emulsion while stirring. Volatile silicones (cyclomethicones) are added below 40 °C/104 °F. Water-soluble silicones (PEG-dimethicones) are added to the water phase; silicone emulsions are diluted in the water phase cold.
Formulation tips:
  • They provide slip, shine and a silky feel without greasiness; combine with light esters to adjust skin feel.
  • Not all silicones are soluble in vegetable oils: run a miscibility test before formulating.
  • Before scaling up, make a pilot batch and run a stability test (cycles at 4 / 25 / 45 °C/39 / 77 / 113 °F for 4 weeks, checking odor, color, pH, viscosity and separation) in the final packaging.
Compatibility: Compatible with esters, mineral oils and most emulsifiers; PEG-dimethicones are compatible with aqueous systems and surfactants.
Storage: Keep in tightly closed containers
Precautions: None in particular
Technical information for formulators: This sheet describes industrial uses of the raw material in the development of cosmetic products. It is not an efficacy claim for any finished product. The person responsible for the formulation must validate the concentration, compatibility and claims of their product in accordance with applicable regulations.
