Presperse was recently granted US Patents for two of their products: SiClone SR-5 and SiClone TD 150.
The main focus of these ingredients is their non-silicone based compositions, an accomplishment in regards to the hesitation to use silicones in cosmetics. SiClone SR-5 is composed entirely of hydrocarbons, maintaining silicone-like aesthetic and volatility properties while eliminating the need for cyclopentasiloxanes. This product can be used for full or partial replacement of volatile silicones. SiClone TD-150 utilises SiClone SR-5 in its composition, allowing several important benefits with its use. This particular ingredient is a non-silicone dispersion based on hydrocarbons, providing ease of use and eliminating the need for a wetting agent which can often cause instability.
