What is Silicone Emulsifier BL-187

Silicone Emulsifier BL-187 is a powerful non-ionic silicone emulsifier designed to deliver exceptional emulsion stability across various formulations. Developed by Blissam, this polyether-modified silicone acts as a reliable silicone emulsion stabilizer, keeping water and oil phases perfectly blended and preventing separation over time.

Composition and Key Components

BL-187’s formula centers on Cyclomethicone (and) PEG-18/PPG-18 Dimethicone, which offers unique emulsifying properties. This combination makes it ideal for creating stable water-in-oil and oil-in-water emulsions. The polyether segments improve compatibility with a wide range of ingredients, while the silicone backbone reduces surface tension for smooth texture and improved spreadability.

Properties and Performance

High emulsion stability: Keeps formulations consistent and prevents phase separation
Low surface tension: Enhances smoothness and texture
Wide compatibility: Works well with various ionic and non-ionic systems
Versatile functionality: Effective in personal care, textiles, coatings, and more
