How to Use (Cont.)
By using blends of cyclomethicones this difference in volatility can be used to vary the residence time of the silicone on the skin.
Unlike other volatile carriers used in the personal care industry, volatile silicone fluids do not cool the skin when they evaporate.
XIAMETER PMX 0345 is a consequence of their unusually low heat of vaporization.
