XIAMETER® PMX-200
Silicone Fluid, 5-20 cSt .
XIAMETER PMX-200 Silicone Fluid
is a polydimethylsiloxane fluid
commonly used as a base fluid in
personal care products due to its
excellent spreading and unique
volatility characteristics. It is clear,
tasteless, essentially odorless and
nongreasy. Unlike other volatile
carriers used in the personal care
industry, this volatile silicone fluid
does not cool the skin when it
evaporates, a consequence of its
unusually low heat of vaporization.
