Gelest launches new silicone macromers

Pennsylvania-based Gelest has added to its range of silicone fluids and materials with the addition of new silicone macromers that include a range of reactive fluids.

The macromers are a range of fluids that include monofunctional and heterobifunctional monodispersants for a range of consumers and industrial applications.

For cosmetic and personal care purposed, the product range is likely to be most useful for applications such as encapsulants, gels and membranes.

Details about the new range are included in the company's latest product brochure, 'Reactive Silicones: Forging New Polymer Links'.
