Octyltriethoxysilane, Silane Film-forming Agent(CAS 2943-75-1)
Cosmetic Grade n-Octyltriethoxysilane is a high-purity organosilicon hydrophobic film-forming functional raw material. It adopts precise organic synthesis technology to stabilize octyl lipophilic hydrophobic structure and triethoxysilane active functional groups, with excellent surface modification and breathable film-forming performance.
The product has ultra-low surface tension and good leveling performance, which can form a uniform, soft, dense and highly breathable waterproof protective film on the skin surface.
The film layer has strong water resistance and anti-fouling ability, which can effectively isolate sweat, sebum and external dust, maintain the integrity of makeup, and solve the pain points of easy smudging, floating and fading of long-wear makeup.
Different from rigid film-forming agents, it has excellent air permeability without stuffy skin and tightness, and will not affect the skin's normal breathing. With stable chemical properties, no oxidation and no yellowing, it can significantly improve the long-term wear resistance and weather resistance of cosmetic finished products, and is a core upgraded raw material for high-end waterproof and long-wear makeup formulas.
