Product Description
Methyl MQ silicone resin is a co-hydrolyzed product of tetraalkoxysilane (Q units) and trimethyl ethoxy silane (M units). It appears as a uniform, fine white powder without aromatic solvents such as toluene. Due to its highly cross-linked structure, it is widely used as a film-forming agent in cosmetics, sunscreens, and color cosmetics.
