DOWSIL™ Silicone Elastomers
Dow offers a wide range of Silicone Elastomers to enhance your next skin care formulation.
Dow combines global breadth, asset integration and scale, focused innovation and leading business positions to achieve profitable growth. The company’s ambition is to become the most innovative, customer centric, inclusive and sustainable materials science company.
DOWSIL™ silicone elastomers are versatile, multifunctional sensory enhancers with a proven safety profile and low D4/D5 content to meet your regulatory requirements.
DOWSIL™ Elastomers are specialty silicone products designed to deliver multifunctional performance within a wide range of formulations. They are well known for contributing a distinctive silky, powdery sensory profile, helping enhance the overall look and feel of finished products.
In addition to sensory benefits, DOWSIL™ Elastomers support key functional roles such as sebum absorption and wrinkle masking, which can improve the appearance of skin.
They are also used to enable the delivery of actives, support film formation, and help suspend actives within formulations, making them versatile tools for formulators seeking both aesthetic and functional performance.
DOWSIL™ Elastomer Powders can be added to a wide range of formulations, including:
- Face and body creams, lotions, gels
- Color cosmetics such as foundations, loose and pressed powders, eye shadows, bronzers and highlighters and lipsticks
- Sun care products
DOWSIL™ Elastomer Powders are easy to formulate and can be added directly to a compatible liquid phase without the need to make a premix in another fluid. For powder or solid formulations, they can be ground directly with other powders.
