Heating Silicones
Hi all!
I usually try to avoid heating silicones, or adding them to emulsions after combining water/oil phases at temperatures below 50 C, because silicones are volatile.
Why does Jeen have a sample formula where you heat Isododecane+Bis-Vinyl Dimethicone/Dimethicone Copolymer to 75-80 C? Does the Isdodecane decrease the volatility, or because this is in a gel structure it isn’t as volatile as Cyclomethicone or something along that vein?
Thanks for the help.
