LC8515 Cyclomethicone
CAS No. 556-67-2, 541-02-6
Cyclomethicones are cyclic (circular) silicones of low molecular weight that evaporate quickly. Their volatility, excellent spreading and lubrication make them ideal carriers for other ingredients and excellent light conditioners for hair and skin. Non-greasy, cyclomethicone leaves no oily residue or build-up and imparts a soft silky feel to skin.
Lotioncrafter LC8515 is a blend of approximately 85% cyclotetrasiloxane and 15% cyclopentasiloxane. It has a lower flashpoint than our LC995 (133°F vs. 171°F). It is more volatile, evaporating up to 5 times faster than LC995 which is 99.5% cyclopentasiloxane. Use in applications where quicker evaporation is essential to product performance.
