KSG-840

KSG-840 is a polyglycerin modified, emulsifying silicone gel that functions as a water-in-oil emulsifier where the oil phase is a hydrocarbon oil. KSG-840 contains 25-35% cross-linked polymer in Squalane.

Shin-Etsu's KSG series consists of cross-linked silicone polymers that are combined with a silicone fluid or oil to form a gel. These silicone gels can be used as thickening agents for the oil phase, which can help with water-in-oil emulsion stability. Products containing a hydrophilic group in the cross-linking portion can also be used as water-in-oil emulsifiers to produce stable emulsions. KSG-840 is a polyglycerin modified, emulsifying silicone gel that contains hydrocarbon-based alkyl branching. KSG-840 functions as a water-in-oil emulsifier where the oil phase is a hydrocarbon oil. It can be used to prepare high internal phase water-in-oil creams, and can create gels that are quickly absorbed by skin. KSG-840 contains 25-35% cross-linked polymer in Squalane and has a refractive index of 1.445 (at 25 °C).
