Uses

A cyclic volatile methylsiloxane (cVMS) used in cosmetic and personal care products, Dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane can be used in dermal exposure and inhalation toxicity study.

Uses

cyclohexasiloxane is a silicone-based emollient.

Definition

ChEBI: Dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane is an organosilicon compound.

General Description

Dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane belonging to the class of cyclic volatile methylsiloxanes is identified as a potent environmental contaminant, most prominently found in biota, biosolid samples, soil, sediment samples, wastewaters, etc. These compounds are used as fragrance carriers or solvents in household products, personal care products, cleaning agents and as precursors in the manufacture of silicone polymers.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable
