Grant's dimethicone copolyol surfactants lower surface tension to improve droplet wetting by lowering the contact angle

GRANSURF Silicone Surfactants

 

Gransurf dimethicone copolyol surfactants provide versatile wetting, emulsification and performance attributes in many types of formulas containing a mixture of volatile and non-volatile silicones and traditional oil components. We've recently expanded our line to include competitive offsets to a number of popular emulsifiers used in O/W, W/O and W/O/W systems.

Gransurf
Product DescriptionINCI Name
Gransurf 50C
Gransurf 50C is a highly concentrated (50% active) formulation aid designed for water-in-oil/water-in-silicone emulsions. Dimethicone (and) PEG/PPG-18/18 Dimethicone
Gransurf 61
Gransurf 61 is a pure silicone surfactant with a HLB value of about 14, ideally suitable for use in O/W type emulsions where a silicone gel or oil is present in the oil phase. PEG-12 Dimethicone
Gransurf 67
Gransurf 67 is designed for water-in-oil/water-in-silicone emulsions with HLB value ~4.5. Provides increased heat stability with effective cost-performance. PEG-10 Dimethicone
Gransurf 90
Gransurf 90 is designed for water-in-oil/water-in-silicone emulsions with HLB value ~5. Features broad compatibility with UV filters and oils due to its branched C16 chains. Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone
Gransurf GR-50
Gransurf GR-50 is an ethoxylated silicone copolyol sulfosuccinate serving primarily as a sebum control surfactant with a very low irritation index. Disodium PEG-12 Dimethicone Sulfosuccinate (and) Water
Gransurf NR-WO
Gransurf NR-WO is a W/O silicone emulsifier with self-thickening ability and can be easily used to make water-in-silicone (W/S) or water-in-oil (W/O) formulations without a high shearing process. Gransurf NR-WO is a highly effective emulsifier for a variety of oils such as silicone gel, silicone oil, plant oil and ester oil. Generally, the use level is 3- 5%. Cyclopentasiloxane (and) PEG-10 Dimethicone (and) Bentonite (and) Distearyldimonium Chloride
Gransurf W9
Gransurf W9 is a cost-competitive non-ionic emulsifying system for cold processed formulations of W/O creams and lotions. Cetyl PEG/PPG-10/1 Dimethicone (and) Hexyl Lautrate (and) Polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate
