Product Description
Hony 9041 is closely related to Hony 9040, with the primary distinction being that the cyclopentamethylsiloxane in the silicone elastomer mixture is replaced by a non-volatile, low viscosity (5cSt) polydimethylsiloxane.
Incorporating Hony 9041 into formulations provides a silky smooth feel and a long-lasting skin texture. It is predominantly utilized for thickening waterless and water-in-oil (W/O) formulations. It is non-flammable and versatile enough for both cold and hot processing.
Usage: Hony 9041 should be added along with the silicone oil in the oil phase. Ensure it is evenly dispersed before processing. Note that the viscosity will gradually decrease as it is diluted with other oils.
