SiSiB® PC16315 is a crosslinked silicone elastomer supplied as a soft white powder. It absorbs a broad range of polar and non-polar oils and swells in low-viscosity silicone fluids and other compatible cosmetic emollients.
SiSiB® PC16315 functions as a sensory and texture modifier in personal care formulations. It improves slip and spreadability, reduces tackiness and greasiness, and leaves the skin with a smooth, silky and powdery after-feel. It can also help reduce surface shine and provide a soft-focus effect.
