DESCRIPTION

Technical Data Sheet – Phenyl Trimethicone (MV)

Phenyl trimethicone is a modified silicone containing a phenyl group in its structure, which gives it unique properties for personal care, cosmetics and hair products. It is mainly used as a conditioning, softening and antifoaming agent. It also improves shine and water resistance without leaving a heavy or greasy feel on skin or hair.

ideal for products such as sunscreens and long-wear makeup.

Benefits and properties
  • Intense shine without greasiness: adds shine to hair and skin without greasy residue.
  • Softness: improves the softness of skin and hair, helping them look healthier.
  • Non-build-up conditioner: unlike other silicones, it does not leave heavy build-up, making it ideal for everyday products.
  • Water resistance: ideal for long-wear or water-resistant products such as sunscreens and makeup.
Practical formulation guide
Usage level: Recommended usage level
  • Recommended concentration: 0.5 % to 5 % in cosmetic and hair products, depending on product type and desired effect.
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 most cosmetic and personal care ingredients, including emulsifiers, oils, extracts and other actives.
  • Insoluble in water, so it is usually added to the oil phase of emulsions or to anhydrous products.
Storage: Storage conditions: store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place. Protect from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Shelf life: approximately 2 years under proper storage conditions.
Precautions: For topical use only. Do not ingest. Stability testing of the final formula is recommended to ensure product compatibility.
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.
