Gransil EP-LS

Gransil EP-LS is a silicone elastomer powder that is prepared by spray-drying an o/w emulsion of cross-linked silicone elastomer. The silicone elastomer has an average particle size in the micron range when dispersed in water. Gransil EP-LS features unique properties: (1) it can be mixed with silicone fluids to constitute a smooth silicone gel and (2) it can be dispersed in water with additional surfactants to make an emulsion, which can be further used to thicken silicone/oil fluids. When used in any form, powder, gel or emulsion, Gransil EP-LS imparts numerous distinctive benefits to cosmetic formulas such as a superior smooth and silky feel, dry-powder effect and a long-lasting matte look. Gransil EP-LS is an ideal value ingredient for skin care and make-up products.
