Manta F1016C Cyclopentasiloxane (and) Dimethiconol

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. (Similar to Dow DC1501).

Properties

1. Imparts a luxurious, velvety, and silky sensory profile to skin and hair.
2. Provides exceptional gloss and superior light-reflective properties.
3. Forms a breathable, soft silicone protective film (Liquid Bandage effect).
4. Enhances the substantivity and longevity of other active ingredients on the skin.
5. Significantly reduces surface friction to improve slip and maintains water resistance.
6. Exhibits excellent hydrophobicity, protecting hair from humidity and frizz.

Manta F1016C is an additive for:

1. Hair Care: Split-end repair serums, anti-frizz conditioners, and styling aids.
2. Skin Care: Facial moisturizers, luxury creams, and body lotions.
3. Color Cosmetics: Primers, liquid foundations, and long-wear lip products.
4. Sun Care: Water-resistant sunscreens and after-sun formulations.

How to Use

1. 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.
2. Compatibility: Exhibits excellent compatibility with oil-phase cosmetic materials such as pigments, natural lipids, and fragrances.
3. 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.
4. 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.
