Gransil DML

Gransil DML is a special blend of dimethicone gel and an ester fluid, neopentyl glycol diheptanoate. Gransil DML is designed for cosmetic formulas free of cyclomethicone with excellent skin feel and low concentration of volatile fluids. Gransil DML provides an enhanced compatibility with organic ingredients and pigments due to the incorporation of neopentyl glycol diheptanoate, which is a versatile ester used as an emollient oil and pigment carrier. Gransil DML is recommended be used from 5 - 50% in formulas to deliver significant benefits such as excellent silky feel, non-tacky characteristics, spreadability, and water-repellency.
