IOTA 201-1: The Versatile Silicone Oil for Superior Skin and Hair Care
Discover IOTA 201-1, a low polymerization dimethylsiloxane fluid that brings unparalleled smoothness and functionality to your cosmetic formulations. This transparent, non-irritating liquid is perfect for reducing greasiness while delivering a soft, silky afterfeel. Its low surface tension promotes excellent spreadability and uniform coverage, making it a go-to ingredient for makeup, skincare, and haircare products.
IOTA 201-1 is highly volatile and permeable, allowing it to impart a lightweight, non-occlusive barrier that enhances skin breathability and water resistance. It serves as an efficient temporary carrier for active compounds, improving their stability and efficacy within the formula.
With a viscosity of just 1 cst and a density of 0.8, this silicone oil integrates seamlessly into oil phases, either alone or blended with other ingredients. Recommended usage levels range from 1–10% in skincare and haircare to up to 30% in color cosmetics and specialty applications.
Packaged in 200L iron drums (170 kg net), IOTA 201-1 combines performance, safety, and convenience for modern cosmetic innovators.
