Gelest Inc. rolled out SiBrid TM-031 personal care specialty silicone fluid with volatility and solubility characteristics similar to the cyclomethicone D5.

According to the company, D5 is an excellent carrier fluid and widely used in a broad range of personal care products. However, in recent years, D5 encountered increased environmental scrutiny. As a result, wash-off cosmetics products containing D5 in a concentration of 0.1% or higher by weight may not be marketed after January 31, 2020.

SiBrid TM-031 is an alternative to D5 in creams, lotions, solid sticks, foundations, tanning oils and hair care products. The specialty silicone reduces tack and greasiness, imparting a light and dry skin feel with a soft and silky after-feel. The colorless fluid improves spreadability. The solubilizing properties of SiBrid TM-031 make it a valuable alternative in cleansing and personal care products.
