SilSense® and Ultrabee™ Specialty Silicones

SilSense® and Ultrabee™ Specialty Silicones feature the benefits of silicones as well as various functional organic groups. With creative chemistry, we have varied the type and degree of organic substitution, the ionic character, the molecular weight and hydrophilicity of the silicones. This produced silicone derivatives that differ in their skin feel, conditioning strength and solubility profiles. From shampoos and styling products to lipsticks and lotions you're bound to find a specialty silicone that can add extra conditioning and enhanced elegance to your personal care formulations.
