Application scenarios
Where BL-9045 Is Used
- BL-9045 can be used in skin care, hair care, and other potential formulations, such as sun care, color cosmetics, and styling aid, etc.
- It can be added to the oil phase or silicone phase in an emulsion formulation.
- It can be post-added to emulsions provided the emulsion is viscous enough for the products to be dispersed.
- For ease of use, blending with Dimethicone or cyclomethicone may reduce its viscosity.
- When heat is used, the material should be processed in an enclosed vessel to prevent the cylcopentasiloxane from volatilizing.
- The recommended processing temperature is not over 60℃.
- The suggested usage level is 1%-20%.
