Silube®

Cosmetic ingredients supplied by Siltech
Silube® by Siltech is a series of alkylated silicones co-reacted with polyethers. These products feature polyether and hydrocarbon moieties added to the same silicone polymer making them either fully or partially soluble in water. The hydrocarbon confers lipophilicity, the polyether brings hydrophilicity, and the silicone provides the low surface and interfacial tensions critical to emulsion stability. They are used as emulsifiers and formulation stabilizers in cosmetics and personal care formulations.

Key benefits of Silube® brand include:

  • Effective for emulsifying both organic oils and silicones with water
  • Provide good conditioning to hair and fibers
