In the ongoing process of upgrading the personal care products industry towards lightweight texture, refreshing experience, and stable formulation, silicone oil raw materials with both volatility and conditioning properties are becoming one of the core elements in the development of skincare, makeup, hair care, and sunscreen products. Our company's product, cyclohexylsiloxane D6, as a volatile cycloalkylsiloxane mainly composed of hexamers, demonstrates significant market value in numerous applications such as skincare, sunscreen, makeup, hair care, and antiperspirant/deodorant due to its refreshing and non-greasy texture, moderate volatility rate, and good formulation compatibility. It provides high-quality volatile silicone oil options for the personal care industry.


I. Core Physical and Chemical Properties of the Product


Product cyclohexylsiloxane D6 is a colorless transparent liquid with a color no higher than twenty Hassen, with a D6 content of no less than 92%, and a total D5 and D6 content of no less than 95%. The moisture content does not exceed 0.025%. This product is a cycloalkylsiloxane mainly composed of hexamers, featuring a weak odor, no irritation, and stable chemical properties. It has high compatibility with many cosmetic components and is volatile without significant residue.


II. Core Performance Advantages


Product cyclohexylsiloxane D6, with its unique cyclic molecular structure, exhibits the following core performance advantages in personal care product formulations:


Refreshing and non-greasy texture. The product can significantly reduce the heaviness of the formulation, making the overall texture lighter and more breathable, especially suitable for skincare and makeup products that aim for zero-burden texture.


Moderate volatility rate and long retention time. The product is volatile and has a low volatility rate, remaining on the skin or hair for a long time, gradually evaporating after exerting lubrication and conditioning effects, with almost no oil film residue.


Reduced surface tension and assistance in pigment dispersion. The product can effectively reduce the surface tension of the formulation, helping solid pigments to be uniformly dispersed in the system, enhancing the smoothness and adhesion of makeup products.


Good formulation compatibility and spreadability. The product is compatible with various waxes, fatty acids, fatty acid esters, mineral oils, and non-volatile silicone oils, as well as with anhydrous ethanol. It can be used alone or mixed with other components.


III. Wide Application Areas


Product cyclohexylsiloxane D6, with its multi-functional performance combination, can play a key role in the following personal care product application areas, including:


1. Skincare and sunscreen products. In skincare lotions, creams, essences, and sunscreen products, product cyclohexylsiloxane D6 can improve the spreadability and smoothness of the formulation, providing a refreshing and non-greasy texture experience.


2. Makeup products. In foundation liquids, BB creams, primer, and makeup base, product cyclohexylsiloxane D6 can help reduce the surface tension of the formulation, assist in the uniform dispersion of pigments, and enhance the smoothness and adhesion of makeup effects.


3. Hair care products. In shampoos, conditioners, and hair essence products, it can give hair a soft and smooth touch, improving dry and wet combability.


4. Antiperspirant/deodorant products. In antiperspirant and deodorant formulations, it can provide a dry and refreshing texture experience, and has good compatibility with other active ingredients.


IV. Usage Guidelines and Compatibility Recommendations


Product cyclohexylsiloxane D6 is compatible with various cosmetic components and can be used in combination with waxes, fatty acids, fatty acid esters, mineral oils, and non-volatile silicone oils. It is compatible with anhydrous ethanol and can be used alone or mixed with other components. Due to its wide application range, specific usage methods and recommended dosages should be determined through experiments based on each product system.


V. Packaging Specifications and Storage Conditions


Product cyclohexylsiloxane D6 is packaged in 190 kilograms per barrel and should be stored in a ventilated, cool place, protected from rain and direct sunlight.


VI. Quality Assurance and Industry Application Value The product cyclohexyl siloxane D6 has established a strict quality control system during the production process. It conducts full-process testing on key indicators such as product appearance, color, D6 content, D5 + D6 content, and moisture to ensure consistency and reliability between batches.


As the personal care products industry continues to develop towards a direction of lightness, refinement, and experience, the demand for volatile silicone oil raw materials with both volatility regulation functions and refreshing skin sensations is steadily increasing. Product cyclohexyl siloxane D6, with its excellent skin sensation performance, good formulation compatibility, and stable quality assurance, is becoming an important basic raw material option in the development of skincare, makeup, hair care, and sunscreen products, providing strong support for promoting the domestic personal care products industry towards higher quality.
