BELSIL® DM 5700 E
BELSIL® DM 5700 E is a small droplet size emulsion of a high-viscosity dimethicone fluid with a sugar-based emulsifier system from renewable materials.
- INCI Dimethicone, Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside, Sorbitan Laurate
Properties
BELSIL® DM 5700 E is an effective conditioning agent for hair care products. Combined with suitable surfactant systems, it supports the formation of a dense, haptically attractive, highly creamy foam. The active ingredient provides a soft, silky touch on natural and damaged hair and strongly reduces dry and wet combing forces and friction.
BELSIL® DM 5700 E can also be used in skin care formulations. There it serves as an alternative to low-viscosity DM fluids and is already effective at significantly reduced application quantities compared to the common dimethicone standards with viscosities in the range of 100 - 350 mm²/s.
Data sheets
BELSIL® DM 5700 E is recommended for formulating mild shampoos. Other fields of application are rinse-off conditioners, leave-in treatments and hair masks or aqueous-based styling products.
BELSIL® DM 5700 E can also be used in skin care formulations like lotions. If BELSIL® DM 5700 E replaces standard Dimethicone fluids with viscosities 100 - 350 mm²/s, we recommend reducing the active silicone level in the formula up to 50% of the original dosage.
