Formulators prefer emulsifying raw materials, and IOTA 99336 PEG-10 polydimethylsiloxane optimizes the sensory experience of the product.
1. The advantages of polyether-modified silicone oil are prominent, balancing hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties.
IOTA 99336 PEG-10 polydimethylsiloxane has a molecular structure that simultaneously contains hydrophilic polyether segments and hydrophobic silicon oxide segments, reducing the interfacial tension between oil and water, and achieving high emulsification efficiency. Besides emulsifying, it can also optimize the smoothness of application on the skin and form a thin protective film on the skin surface, locking in moisture and improving the problem of product dehydration.
2. The formulation process is simplified, reducing the threshold for production energy consumption.
Traditional silicone oil emulsifying raw materials often require high temperatures and long-term homogenization. IOTA 99336 supports a constant-temperature emulsification process, adding the aqueous phase slowly to the oil phase and combining with rapid stirring to obtain a stable emulsion. This simplifies the factory production process and reduces energy consumption. Increasing the proportion of water will lead to an increase in the viscosity of the system, and formers can flexibly adjust parameters to control the consistency of the finished product.
3. Answers to customer's popular questions, solving the difficulties in formula debugging
Question: Will adding too much IOTA 99336 cause acne or acne-prone skin?
Answer: When used within the recommended addition range, the risk of causing acne is low. The formulation suggests strictly controlling the addition amount, conducting skin tests before going live, and prioritizing small-scale trials for sensitive skin products.
Question: When the emulsion is stored for a period of time and separates, is it a problem with the raw materials themselves?
Answer: Most of the time, it is a problem with the formulation system. Adding 0.5% to 2% of sodium chloride or other electrolytes to the water phase can improve the stability of the emulsion; at the same time, check the stirring process, raw material compatibility, and optimize storage conditions.
4. Raw materials are compliant and controllable, supporting the stable implementation of beauty products.
IOTA 99336 is a cosmetic-grade raw material, with stable physicochemical indicators and strong batch consistency. The product has a slight polyether characteristic odor, which will not significantly interfere with the aroma of the finished product. When developing products for makeup, sunscreen, and skincare categories, small sample tests can be conducted to verify the stability of the formula in advance, shortening the new product development cycle.
