Product Description
Manta F1016C features a dense, hydroxyl-functionalized Dimethiconol gum solubilized within a volatile Cyclopentasiloxane (D5) vector.
Upon application, the volatile vector ensures uniform distribution before rapidly evaporating. This leaves the high-viscosity gum to perform its primary function: micro-sealing. Unlike inert methyl-silicones, the reactive hydroxyl groups on the polymer backbone actively adhere to the protein structure of damaged hair (keratin) through polar interactions. This results in a liquid bandage effect that physically mends split ends and smooths the cuticle surface for immediate, visible restoration. Performance comparable to Dow DC1501.
- Imparts a luxurious, velvety, and silky sensory profile to skin and hair.
- Provides exceptional gloss and superior light-reflective properties.
- Forms a breathable, soft silicone protective film (Liquid Bandage effect).
- Enhances the substantivity and longevity of other active ingredients on the skin.
- Significantly reduces surface friction to improve slip and maintains water resistance.
- Exhibits excellent hydrophobicity, protecting hair from humidity and frizz.
Application Details
- Hair Care: Split-end repair serums, anti-frizz leave-in conditioners, and styling aids.
- Skin Care: Facial moisturizers, luxury creams, and body lotions.
- Color Cosmetics: Primers, liquid foundations, and long-wear lip products.
- Sun Care: Water-resistant sunscreens and after-sun formulations.
- Temperature Control: Due to the volatility of the D5 carrier, it is highly recommended to process Manta F1016C at room temperature or below 50°C. If the oil phase requires melting, cool the batch to 50°C before adding this product under continuous stirring.
- Compatibility: Exhibits excellent compatibility with oil-phase cosmetic materials such as pigments, natural lipids, and fragrances.
- Direct Application: After adjusting the viscosity with cyclomethicones, the product can be used directly as a high-end hair serum to condition, hydrate, and restore dry or weakened hair.
- Recommended Dosage: 3.0% – 8.0% in standard hair and skin care products; 20.0% – 50.0% in concentrated hair serums or hair oil formulations.
