Grant Industries has launched three new ingredients for personal care formulations. Gransil NYKT-P (INCI: Dimethicone/mercaptopropyl methicone copolymer (and) phenyl trimethicone (and) melaleuca (tea tree) leaf oil), a new patent-pending hair care technology designed for straightening, styling and anti-frizz applications. Based on consumer-friendly silicone chemistry, Gransil NYKT-P is 100% formaldehyde-free.
Also new are Gransil SiW-066 (INCI: Dimethicone (and) polysilicone-11 (and) water (and) butylene glycol (and) decyl glucoside) and Gransil VX-409 (Bis-PEG-8 dimethicone), two new silicone materials designed for enhanced sensory aesthetics in water-based applications.
According to the company, Gransil SiW-066 is an easy-to-formulate, process-friendly micro-dispersion of silicone-in-water. An outer aqueous design on Gransil SiW-066 allows silicone elastomer to easily be added to the water-phase of formulations—no heat required. Gransil SiW-066 is ideal for cold processing where elegant products can be created with simple mixing. Applications include skin care, color cosmetics, body care and sun care. The use level is 5-40%.
Gransil VX-409 offers 100% water-solubility for use in toners, light lotions, serums and wipe applications. Gransil VX-409 is an easy cold process addition for water-based formulations requiring a silicone-feel. The use level is 1-10%.
