Manta F1056A is a specialized, low-viscosity Phenyl-Modified Siloxane engineered for high-clarity formulations. Distinguished by its superior solubility in ethanol, it is the preferred choice for transparent systems such as sprays, aerosols, and serums.
This fluid acts as a multifunctional sensory shield. Upon application, it forms a breathable, hydrophobic barrier that repels water while remaining non-occlusive (allowing for natural perspiration). Its unique phenyl structure provides robust antioxidant stability against heat and UV radiation, helping to protect sensitive active ingredients within the formulation. It effectively transforms the texture of tacky organic ingredients into a silky, smooth, and non-tacky finish.
Properties
- Features a high refractive index, significantly enhancing the optical brilliance and gloss of the final product.
- Exhibits exceptional UV and oxidative stability, protecting the integrity of the formulation against environmental stressors.
- Outstanding compatibility with a wide range of organic cosmetic solvents; notably soluble in 95% ethanol.
- Functions as a non-volatile emollient, providing a luxurious, smooth, and non-greasy skin feel.
- Imparts excellent water resistance and breathability to the skin and hair surface.
- Easily emulsified using standard cosmetic processing techniques.
