Shampoo

A good shampoo not only cleans the hair, but provides a pleasant silky feel and better combability. Dimethicones, dimethiconols, alkyl and polyether silicones are the ideal basis for creating tangible and visible effects in wet and dry hair. As a silicones specialist, we offer coordinated additives for formulating shampoos for different hair types and market requirements.

Overview of Attractive Effects

• Silky Feel
  Dimethicones and dimethiconols for normal hair and amino silicones for damaged hair impart a silky soft feel to dry hair that other additives struggle to achieve.
• Better Combability
  Amino silicone fluid emulsions, dimethicones and alkyl silicones improve the combability of dry and wet hair. An addition of just 2 % silicone wax gel to two-in-one shampoos, for example, lowers the dry-combing force by 75 % and the wet-combing force by 48 %.
• Hardly any electrostatic charging
  Polyether silicones and amino silicone fluid emulsions reduce electrostatic charging of the hair surface and so reduce flyaway.
• Effective Foam System
  Polyether silicones allow foam formation to be regulated via the temperature. This makes it easier to dispense the product at temperatures above the cloud point and thus speeds up production processes.
