Product Description
Manta F1019 is a multifunctional polyether-modified silicone fluid featuring a balanced ratio of ethoxylated (PEG) and propoxylated (PPG) side chains.
This specific dual-action architecture distinguishes it from simple hydrophilic silicones. While the PEG groups ensure excellent water solubility, the PPG groups provide a higher degree of lubricity and substantivity. This makes Manta F1019 an exceptional conditioning surfactant and co-emulsifier. It effectively reduces interfacial tension to stabilize foams and emulsions, while depositing a soft, breathable, and antistatic film that enhances the manageability of hair and the skin-feel of aqueous cleansers.
- Functions as a high-performance non-ionic surfactant with ultra-low surface tension and anti-static properties.
- Completely soluble in water, propylene glycol, and glycerin, forming clear and stable systems.
- Highly compatible with both silicone oils and organic lipids, acting as an efficient co-emulsifier.
- Acts as a superior foam stabilizer and density enhancer in surfactant-based formulations.
- Imparts a luxurious, silky-soft sensory profile to both skin and hair without causing buildup.
- Physiologically inert; suitable for leave-on and rinse-off products.
Application Details
- Manta F1019 is used in various clear and emulsion-based products, including:
- Cleansing Systems: Facial cleansers, body washes, and transparent liquid soaps.
- Hair Care: Styling gels, hair tonics, and aqueous conditioning sprays (provides anti-static benefits).
- Skin Care: Moisturizing creams, lotions, and alcohol-free toners.
- Specialized Applications: Functions as a foam stabilizer for aerosol products and a high-performance brightener in leather care formulations.
- Cold Processing: Manta F1019 is completely cold-processable. It can be added directly to the water phase of any formulation under standard mixing.
- Co-Emulsification: When used to stabilize complex oil phases (silicones or esters), it is recommended to pre-blend F1019 with the oil phase before adding to the water phase to maximize its emulsifying efficiency.
- Aerosol Systems: For styling foams or shaving creams, it should be incorporated into the base concentrate prior to propellant charging to ensure uniform foam structure.
- Recommended Dosage: 0.5% – 5.0% for most personal care applications; typically used at 1.0% – 3.0% in facial cleansers and creams.
