XIAMETERTM PMX-200 Silicone Fluid is a polydimethylsiloxane fluid commonly used as a base fluid in personal care products due to its excellent spreading and unique volatility characteristics. It is clear, tasteless, essentially odorless and non-greasy. Unlike other volatile carriers used in the personal care industry, this volatile silicone fluid does not cool the skin when it evaporates, a consequence of its unusually low heat of vaporization. XIAMETERTM PMX-200 Silicone Fluid, 0.65 cSt, is a volatile fluid with an appreciable vapor pressure at ambient temperature. Commercial bulk-polymerized dimethyl silicone fluids, such as XIAMETERTM PMX-200 Silicone Fluid, typically contain trace amounts of impurities.
