GRANSIL GCM5 is a translucent gel that provides enhanced aesthetics to formulations. As a volatile elastomer dispersion in Cyclopentasiloxane (D5), GRANSIL GCM5 delivers excellent non-tacky, non-oily, smooth characteristics and stable delivery of active materials. The elastomer network of GRANSIL GCM5 offers sebum absorption and control, transforming formulations into a matte appearance with a powdery after feel. It can be formulated into oil-in-water emulsions, water-in-oil emulsions and anhydrous systems. GRANSIL GCM5 is dispersible in a variety of oils and provides benefits such as enhanced aesthetics, absorption and control when added to the oil phase of emulsion types.
