If you are looking for the slip and feel of silicone in a foaming, cleansing or conditioning product, Colonial’s Poly Suga®Sil surfactants are right for your formulation. Colonial Chemical has pioneered the development of naturally derived surfactants for the personal care industry. Our unique Poly Suga®Sil surfactants start from a naturally derive building block, alkyl polyglucoside, and are derivatized with dimethicone to make a product that has excellent feel and conditioning.
The Poly Suga®Sil products when used in shampoos, body washes and other personal care formulations actually contribute to the foam of the formulation. The excellent toxicological properties Poly Suga®Sil surfactants enable them to be used in baby products, facial cleansers, shaving products and hand soaps. With the mildness displayed from Poly Suga®Sil surfactants, these products have an ability to mitigate irritation in harsh formulations.
Poly Suga®Sil products are lighter than silicone and are much more water-soluble than typical dimethicone. They do not build up on hair and skin yet provide excellent slip and lubricity.
Poly Suga®Sil as a dimethicone copolyol replacement, silicone replacement or any time the properties of silicone are desired yet water solubility, mildness and foam are also required. Poly Suga®Sil surfactants are safe, mild and can be left on hair and skin.
