Description

Polysilicone-6 is a specialized silicone-based polymer, identified by CAS NO 146632-09-9, designed to deliver exceptional conditioning and film-forming properties. This compound is valued for its ability to impart a silky, non-greasy feel and enhance gloss without compromising compatibility. It serves as a critical functional ingredient for formulators seeking to improve product performance and sensory appeal. Key industries that rely on this material include personal care, cosmetics, and high-performance industrial coatings.

Application

• Primary conditioning agent in hair care products such as shampoos, conditioners, and serums.
• Key ingredient in skin care formulations like lotions and creams to improve spreadability and texture.
• Used in color cosmetics (e.g., foundations, lipsticks) to enhance pigment dispersion and wear.
• Provides a smooth, protective film in sunscreen and sun care products.
• Acts as a gloss enhancer and anti-foaming agent in various industrial coating systems.
• Employed in anti-aging serums to improve skin feel and active delivery.
• Utilized in men's grooming products for a lightweight, non-sticky finish.
