Manta F1039 PEG12 Dimethicone

Manta F1039 is a surface-active silicone copolymer supplied as a clear, low-viscosity liquid. It features a specific ratio of hydrophilic polyether chains (PEG-12) grafted onto a hydrophobic siloxane backbone.

This amphiphilic structure grants Manta F1039 exceptional surface tension reduction capabilities. Unlike solid waxes, it dissolves instantly in cold water to form crystal-clear solutions. It functions as a highly efficient wetting agent, allowing formulations to spread effortlessly across skin and hair. Additionally, it acts as a hydro-emollient, delivering the characteristic slip of silicone without greasiness, while significantly improving the foam density and stability in surfactant-based cleansing systems.

Features

1. Functions as a high-performance non-ionic surfactant with excellent interfacial wetting properties.
2. Completely miscible with water in any proportion, forming clear and stable solutions.
3. Highly breathable and non-occlusive, ensuring comfort in leave-on formulations.
4. Acts as a superior foam stabilizer, increasing foam creaminess and volume in cleansing products.
5. Imparts a remarkable silky-soft sensory effect and long-lasting radiance to hair and skin.
6. Enhances the uniform spreading of formulations and maintains long-term luster.
7. Physiologically inert and non-irritating to the skin and eyes.

Manta F1039 is ideal for a wide range of water-based and emulsion products, including:

1. Cleansing Products: Facial cleansers, body washes, and liquid soaps (improves foam and reduces dryness).
2. Hair Care: Styling gels, aqueous hair tonics, and clear shampoos.
3. Skin Care: Moisturizing creams, lotions, and alcohol-based toners.
4. Specialized Applications: Functions as a foam stabilizer for aerosol products and a plasticizer for organic resins in styling formulations.

How to Use

1. Processing: Highly versatile and easy to incorporate; it can be added directly to the water phase of any formulation. In clear gel or toner systems, it can be cold-blended with other film-forming polymers to enhance softness and brightness without affecting clarity.
2. Emulsification: In creams and lotions, it acts as a secondary emulsifier or sensory modifier and should be added to the water phase prior to emulsification.
3. Recommended Dosage: 1.0% – 3.0% for most skin and hair care applications; can be adjusted based on the desired level of foam stability and silkiness.
