- CAS Number
- 63148-62-99006-65-99016-00-6
- INCI Name
- Dimethicone
BELSIL® DM 60000 is an unmodified polydimethylsiloxane, known as a linear and non-reactive dimethicone, with a viscosity measuring 60000 mm²/s. This product stands out for its low surface tension and high spreading coefficient. Dimethicones, owing to their flexible polymer structure, exhibit excellent gas permeability, enabling the skin to respire by facilitating the passage of gasses such as water vapor and oxygen.

- Application Details
High-viscous BELSIL® DM 60000 is widely used in a diverse range of personal-care formulations. Dimethicones provide a hydrophobic, protective, but breathable barrier for the skin, imparting softness and emolliency. They improve the water resistance of various products, such as sun screens.. Simultaneously, they prevent stickiness in skin-care as well as in color-cosmetics formulations. In hair-care products, high-viscous dimethicones are among the most commonly used conditioning additives. They improve both wet and dry combability, impart humidity resistance and a soft feel to the hair, and enhance shine.
