Product Description

Manta F10451 is a calibrated binary blend of volatile Cyclotetrasiloxane (D4) and Cyclopentasiloxane (D5). It is designed as an ultra-light, low-viscosity carrier fluid with a tailored evaporation profile.

By incorporating the highly volatile D4 component, Manta F10451 offers a faster flash-off rate than pure D5. It functions as a transient carrier that spreads active ingredients evenly and then evaporates rapidly, leaving absolutely no residue or buildup. It provides a unique vanishing texture, creating an immediate sensation of dryness and freshness on the skin. It also exhibits superior solvency for silicone gums and resins compared to higher molecular weight volatiles.

Lightweight & Volatile: Evaporates quickly from the skin or hair, leaving absolutely no greasy residue;

Excellent Spreadability: Provides a silky, smooth texture and superior slip to skincare and haircare products;

Superior Solubility: Highly compatible with a wide range of organic oils and silicones, enhancing overall formulation stability.

Application Details

  • Manta F10451 can be widely used in a variety of personal care products, including:
  • Skincare: Used as a transient carrier in serums, primers, and sunscreens to deliver a smooth, matte finish while helping active ingredients spread evenly;
  • Haircare: Incorporated into leave-in conditioners and heat-protectant sprays to provide brilliant shine, detangling, and frizz reduction without weighing the hair down;
  • Color Cosmetics: Acts as a key volatile carrier in liquid foundations, BB creams, and lip products to ensure a lightweight, easily blendable application.

Used in: Color Cosmetics
