With consumers expecting multiple benefits from their personal care products, chemists are looking for raw materials that can bring more to their formulations. That’s what drives the team at Momentive Performance Materials (Booth 727).
“Companies are asking for combined multiple properties,” Sigfredo Gonzalez, global program manager, PC, silicone fluids technology told Happi.
To that end, the company is touting a trio of technologies—Tospearl AQ, SIlsoft AX and Velvesil 034.
Well suited for the hot anti-aging cosmetics category, Tospearl AQ microspheres—silicone spheres coated with a cationic polymer—can be easily incorporated into oil-in-water emulsions, delivering line blurring capabilities and a smooth and silky sensory experience. Silsoft AX, an alkyl modified amino fluid, delivers superior smoothness and shine for dry hair, and added bonus of thermal protection capabilities, according to Gonzalez. For dispersement and spreading cosmetic ingredients without tackiness or more uniform coverage in daily sunscreens, Momentive offers Velvesil 034 organosilicone gel. This patented silicone cross polymer network can bring outstanding sensorial benefits and can also boost SPF performance.
