Quick Overview
100% active, 100 cSt, polydimethylsiloxane polymer. INCI Name: Dimethicone
Active ingredient in a variety of automotive, furniture, metal and specialty polishes in paste, emulsion and solvent-based polishes and aerosols. Applications include cosmetic ingrediet, elastomer and plastics lubricant, electrical insulating fluid, foam preventive or breaker, mechanical fluid, mold release agent, surface active agent, and solvent-based finishing and fat liquoring of leather
Applications: Active ingredient in a variety of automotive, furniture, metal and specialty polishes in paste, emulsion and solvent-based polishes and aerosols. Cosmetic ingredient, elastomer and palstics lubricant, electrical insulating fluid, foam prevenative or breaker, mechanical fluid, mold release agent, surface active agent, and solvent-based finishing and fat liquiring of leather.
Benefits: Ease of application, rubout and buffing; enhances color; high water repellency; high compressbility; high shearability and breakdown; high spreadability and compatibility; low environment hazard; low fire hazard; low reactivity and vapor pressure; low surface energy; good heat stability; essentally odorless, tasteless and nontoxic; soluble in a wide range of solvents for personal care applications; de-soaping (prevents foaming during rubout) for industrial applications; high dielectric strength; high damping action; oxidation, chemical and water resistant
