Silico® PC12503 Modified Silicones
Silico® PC12503 is a high-quality cosmetics-grade silicon wax with a unique chemical structure, featuring alkyl chains on linear methicone polymer. It dissolves easily in most oils and solvents, similar to organic solvents and dimethicone.
Technical Data
Property | Value |
---|---|
Appearance | White wax |
Softening Temperature | 28-35°C |
Flash Point | >93°C |
Viscosity (37°C) | 30-70 mPa·s |
Specific Gravity | 0.800-0.950 |
Applications
Silico® PC12503 is used as part of the oil phase in cosmetic formulations. It is recommended to heat during use. To prevent crystallization upon cooling, use with a small amount of soluble oil. If crystallization occurs, viscosity may increase abnormally at room temperature, and demulsification may happen. To resolve this, add compatible oil to the silicone wax at a ratio of 10:1 to 5.
Recommended Usage: 0.1-20%
To replace mineral oil or Vaseline, use a dosage of less than 5%.
