Isododecane (Germany)
Ultra-lightweight Emollient Can quickly evaporate from the skin. Makes it not leave a sticky residue on the skin. and is soluble in silicones, hydrocarbons, isoparaffin without soluble in water. Suitable for use in place of oil in oil-free formulas that require extra lightness.
Isododecane is an ultra-lightweight Emollient. Can quickly evaporate from the skin. Does not clog pores Makes it not leave a sticky residue on the skin. and is soluble in silicones, hydrocarbons, isoparaffin without soluble in water. Suitable for use in place of oil in oil-free formulas that require extra lightness. and prevents a sticky feeling on the skin including protection against water (water-repellent) such as Vitamin C Anhydrous, Mascara, various makeup products
If volatile emollient is not required, please select Isohexadecane instead, which will have a soft, smooth, light and similar properties. but cannot evaporate
Comparison of 3 types of hydrocarbons emollient:
1. Isododecane lightest weight can volatilize It helps to blend the formula well.
The company sells Isododecane 2 grades : Isododecane (Germany) and Isododecane (Japan)
2. Isohexadecane have more weight Isododecane little unable to evaporate Helps to blend well.
3. Isoeicosane have more weight A small amount of Isohexadecane It is not volatile. Helps to blend well
