Evonik offers two new aminopropyl dimethicone products for cost-efficient and effective hair conditioning. ABIL Soft AF 200 has been optimised for high-performance conditioning out of shampoo formulations.
ABIL Soft AF 300 is designed for conditioning rinses. The two aminosilicones provide excellent hair conditioning properties with superior hair feel, softness and smoothness. ABIL Soft AF 200 and 300 (INCI: Aminopropyl Dimethicone) also give remarkable manageability and hair combability. The new products are almost colourless liquids with low odour. Their low viscosities make them easy to handle and to process. The excellent performance of the new products is closely related to an innovative synthetic route which leads to an optimal alignment of the functional groups along the polymer and to excellent purity. The content of cyclic silicones, D4 and D5, is very low, and due to the absence of secondary amines there is no risk of nitrosamine formation.
