Dimethicone is a high-performance silicone polymer known for its exceptional spreadability and protective properties. Our Cosmetic Grade fluids are available in various viscosities to provide a smooth, silky feel to topical formulations. This polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) acts as a superior skin protectant, forming a non-greasy breathable barrier that prevents transepidermal water loss. In hair care, it provides brilliant shine and significantly reduces flyaways and friction. In the automotive and industrial sectors, it functions as a potent antifoaming agent and lubricant. It maintains its physical properties across a wide temperature range and is highly resistant to oxidation and chemical degradation.
