Cyclopentasiloxane

Cyclopentasiloxane is a high-purity, volatile cyclic dimethyl silicone fluid, commonly known as D5. It appears as a clear, colorless, odorless liquid with low viscosity and low surface tension. This versatile silicone fluid offers excellent spreading and rub-out properties, imparting a silky, non-greasy feel to the skin and hair without leaving any oily residue or buildup. As a volatile carrier, it is highly compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients and evaporates completely after application. Our Cyclopentasiloxane is widely used as an emollient, solvent, conditioning agent, and pigment dispersant in personal care formulations. It delivers consistent quality and reliable performance for your most demanding cosmetic and personal care applications.

The main detailed uses of the product

Anti-Skinning Agent in Paints & Coatings

MEKO is primarily used as an efficient anti-skinning agent in various coatings, including alkyd resins, oil-based paints, epoxy esters, and polyurethane formulations. It prevents the formation of a skin on the surface of the paint during storage by inhibiting the surface oxidation of drying oils, thereby reducing waste and maintaining product quality.
Skin Care Moisturizers & Serums

Used as a light, fast-absorbing emollient that restores skin lipid balance without clogging pores or leaving a greasy residue. Ideal for facial creams and serums targeting all skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin.
Skin Care Creams & Lotions

Used in leave-on skin care formulations as a moisturizing and film-forming polymer. It enhances skin feel, provides a smooth, silky afterfeel, and helps improve the longevity of other active ingredients on the skin.
