Product Description
SeraSilk EL 63 functional characteristics and industrial application in cosmetic formulations
SeraSilk EL 63 is a high-tech silicone elastomer supplied as a stable gel. This raw material of biological origin is synthesized from cross-linked dimethicone molecules dispersed in a volatile silicone carrier. The ready-to-use gel format is a priority for the industrial sector as it eliminates the need for high-energy powder dispersion and easily integrates into the oil phase at room temperature. Manufacturers choose SeraSilk EL 63 for its exceptional processability, ability to stabilize emulsions, and provide a unique sensory profile to the finished product without the use of complex thickeners.
Properties and purpose
The main purpose of SeraSilk EL 63 is to create an ideal matte texture and provide a soft-focus effect in cosmetic products. In production logic, this component acts as a structural modifier that instantly improves spreadability on the skin, eliminating tackiness and excessive greasiness. Formulators use the elastomer to develop products that require micro-relief filling and the creation of a velvety finish. Due to its cross-linked structure, the gel holds active components and fragrances, ensuring their gradual release. Small and medium enterprises choose this raw material for its stability across a wide temperature range and compatibility with most organic oils and waxes.
Industrial applications
In the cosmetic industry, SeraSilk EL 63 is an indispensable base component for color cosmetic lines, including primers, foundations, and BB creams. Professional skin care for face and body integrates this elastomer into anti-aging serums and mattifying lotions where visual texture correction is important. In the hair care segment, the component is used to create leave-in fluids and styling products that provide silkiness without weighting the hair down. The Wellness sector utilizes the gel in the production of massage products to ensure long-lasting and comfortable slip. The versatility of SeraSilk EL 63 allows it to be successfully applied in Private label projects for creating premium lines with a pronounced aesthetic effect, ensuring reproducibility of characteristics in every batch.
