BELSIL ECO DM 5

BELSIL ECO DM 5 is a linear, non-reactive, unmodified polydimethylsiloxane, based on renewable raw materials according to standards. In the BELSIL ECO DM 5 manufacturing process, the use of fossil-based raw materials is compensated 100% by biomethanol from renewable resources. BELSIL ECO DM 5 is characterized by low surface tension and a high spreading coefficient. Due to their flexible polymer backbone, dimethicones have high permeability to gases (e.g. water vapor, oxygen), which allows respiration of the skin. BELSIL ECO DM 5 is widely used in a highly varied range of formulations. Formulations with BELSIL ECO DM 5 have better spreading properties and can be easily distributed on the skin. In these formulations, it imparts a hydrophobic, protective but breathable barrier to the skin, simultaneously minimizing stickiness.
