  • Why Use CDF MQ Flake Resin?

    Trimethylsiloxysilicate (MQ Resin) is a crosslinked silicone polymer known for its superior film-forming properties. It creates a breathable yet long-lasting barrier that improves color adhesion, water resistance, and transfer resistance. When incorporated into oils or volatile silicones, it forms a clear, flexible film with excellent shine and staying power.

    Key Benefits:

    • Forms a strong, flexible, water-resistant film
    • Improves wear and adhesion of color cosmetics
    • Enhances gloss and clarity in formulations
    • Increases transfer resistance for lip and foundation products
    • Provides smooth, even application with a lightweight feel

    Usage Guidelines:

    • Typical usage: 1–30%, depending on formula type
    • Dissolve in Cyclopentasiloxane, Isododecane, or other silicone solvents before use
    • Add resin solution to oil phase; mix under gentle heat (~60°C) until uniform
    • Compatible with pigments, oils, and other silicones

    Formulation Tips:

    • Use in combination with Polymethylsilsesquioxane for improved slip and flexibility
    • Enhance transfer resistance in lipsticks or eyeliners by adding 10–20%
    • In hair or skin applications, pair with volatile silicones for non-tacky feel
    • Blend with Trimethylsiloxysilicate/D5 liquid resin for high-gloss films
