Volatile Silicone Fluids

SiSiB® Volatile Silicone Fluids are a range of low-viscosity, fast-spreading silicone materials developed for personal care and cosmetic applications. Known for their lightweight sensory profile, rapid evaporation, and excellent spreadability, these products are widely used to improve formulation aesthetics, reduce greasiness, and deliver smooth, elegant skin feel in modern beauty formulations.

SiSiB® Volatile Silicone Fluid portfolio includes cyclic and linear volatile silicone technologies designed for skin care, hair care, color cosmetics, sun care, antiperspirants, and hybrid beauty products. Different volatility profiles and molecular structures allow formulators to optimize drying time, sensory performance, compatibility, and formulation texture for various applications.

SiSiB® Volatile Silicone Fluids provide a light, silky, and non-oily feel while enhancing spreadability and reducing tackiness in formulations. In skin care and sun care systems, they help improve application smoothness, reduce heavy after-feel, and create elegant, fast-drying textures. In color cosmetics, volatile silicone fluids contribute to improved pigment distribution, soft-focus appearance, enhanced payoff, and comfortable long-wear performance.

In hair care applications, these materials can improve wet distribution, reduce stickiness, enhance smoothness and shine, and support lightweight conditioning performance without excessive buildup. They are commonly used in hair serums, leave-in treatments, styling products, anti-frizz systems, and shine-enhancing formulations.

Volatile silicone fluids are also widely used as carrier systems for silicone elastomers, silicone resins, pigments, UV filters, active ingredients, and specialty cosmetic materials. Their low surface tension and excellent spreading behavior make them particularly suitable for formulations requiring thin, uniform film formation and elegant sensory properties.

In addition, SiSiB SILICONES also offers a range of D5 alternative technologies developed for modern personal care formulations. These materials are designed to provide lightweight sensory performance, smooth spreadability, and elegant after-feel similar to traditional volatile silicones, while supporting evolving global regulatory and sustainability trends. Depending on formulation requirements, selected alternatives can offer fast evaporation, silky touch, reduced tackiness, improved compatibility, and optimized sensory aesthetics for skin care, hair care, sun care, and color cosmetic applications.

SiSiB® Volatile Silicone Fluids are suitable for creams, lotions, serums, primers, foundations, sunscreens, deodorants, hair styling products, body care products, and multifunctional cosmetic formulations where lightweight feel, fast evaporation, and silky sensory performance are desired.
