Cyclomethicone 245 (also known as Cyclopentasiloxane or D5) is a high-performance silicone fluid primarily used as a volatile carrier and conditioning agent. It is valued for its ability to evaporate quickly at room temperature without leaving a greasy residue or causing a cooling sensation on the skin.

Features

Primary Functions

  • Volatile Carrier & Solvent: Acts as a delivery vehicle for other active ingredients, pigments, and resins, ensuring even distribution before evaporating completely.
  • Emollient & Skin Conditioning: Provides a silky, smooth, and velvety feel to the skin without the heaviness associated with traditional oils.
  • Hair Conditioning: Improves wet and dry combability, adds shine, and reduces frizz without weighing hair down.
  • Detackifier: Reduces the stickiness of other ingredients like glycerin or organic oils in a formulation.
  • Spreadability Enhancer: Its low surface tension allows thick or waxy cosmetic systems to spread easily and evenly.
