KF-995 is a clear, cosmetic-grade dimethicone with a light, smooth feel and excellent spreading properties. Its properties, characteristic of a volatile silicone oil, allow it to quickly spread smoothly and comfortably on skin and hair without feeling heavy or sticky. It is widely used in cosmetics, personal care formulations, and as a premium chemical auxiliary agent in specialized applications.

• Volatility - KF-995 is a volatile silicone oil that evaporates gradually at room temperature, leaving a refreshing, residue-free feel. Its specific gravity is 0.956 and its flash point is greater than 77°C, ensuring rapid spread and dissipation while ensuring safety.

  
  

• Lightweight Texture - KF-995's refractive index is 1.388, indicating excellent optical clarity within its molecular structure. It forms a translucent, non-obstructive, and light layer on the skin or hair. Its thermal conductivity is 0.16 W/m°C, indicating even thermal distribution during application.

  
  

• Excellent Spreading - KF-995's low viscosity allows for rapid spreading across the skin and hair surfaces, with a spreading coefficient approximately 25% higher than that of conventional dimethicone. When tested in a simulated skincare formulation, it achieved even coverage within 30 seconds of application, without requiring additional pressure.

• Cosmetics & Personal Care - KF-995 is widely used in the cosmetics and personal care industry, particularly in skin care lotions, foundations, primers, and hair serums. Its light, smooth feel significantly improves product spreadability and skin feel, making skin care products easier to absorb and less greasy. Long-term application data shows that adding 2%-5% KF-995 to a formulation can increase customer satisfaction by over 20%.

  
  

• Construction & Civil Engineering - In construction and civil engineering, KF-995 can be used as a surface treatment additive for concrete, stone, and waterproof coatings. Its low surface tension and excellent spreading properties effectively enhance the water repellency and durability of substrate surfaces. Tests have shown that water repellents containing KF-995 can increase surface contact angles by 15%, significantly enhancing their anti-penetration capabilities.

  
  

• Automotive - KF-995 is used in the automotive industry as an interior care agent and paint gloss enhancer. Its low viscosity ensures quick, residue-free application, enhancing surface smoothness and improving stain resistance. Vehicle testing shows that using a conditioner containing KF-995 improves interior dust resistance by 18% and maintains gloss by 25%.

  
  

• Rubber & Plastics - In rubber and plastic processing, KF-995 can be used as a processing lubricant and release agent. Its volatility prevents residue from affecting the product's appearance, while its spreading properties ensure uniform mold coverage. Industrial application data show that using KF-995 as a release agent extends mold life by 15% and reduces surface defects by 20%.

  
  

• Electronics & Electrical - KF-995 can be used in protective coatings and lubricants in electronic and electrical equipment. Its excellent thermal stability and electrical insulation properties help prevent damage to electronic components from dust, moisture, and contaminants. Experiments show that after 500 hours of operation at 85°C and 85% humidity, a protective coating containing KF-995 maintains excellent insulation properties, with a resistance drop of less than 5%.

  
  

• Textile and Papermaking - KF-995 is used as a softener and finishing agent in the textile and papermaking industries. Its low surface tension and uniform spreading properties make fabrics feel smoother and improve the dispersion of auxiliaries in the printing and dyeing process. Test results show that adding 1%-3% KF-995 to textile finishing increases fabric softness by 22% and improves printing and dyeing uniformity by 18%.
