About Trifluoropropyl Dimethicone/PEG-10 Crosspolymer

Trifluoropropyl Dimethicone/PEG-10 Crosspolymer is a polymer of trifluoropropyl dimethicone crosslinked with PEG-10 diallyl ether.[1] The number 10 in the name represents the average number of added ethylene oxide units; within the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formula’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to create emulsified formulas in which water and oil are evenly mixed, leave the skin’s surface soft and smooth, and lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2] It is also used to adjust the viscosity and flow of the formula.[2]
