Dimethyl Isosorbide
Dimethyl Isosorbide is a high-performance, eco-friendly solvent and additive that can mix with water, ethanol, and various organic solvents in any proportion. Dimethyl Isosorbide can dissolve many organic UV absorbers, synthetic fragrances, essential oils, oils, and synthetic polymers, which are usually difficult to dissolve in water or ethanol.
Dimethyl Isosorbide, abbreviated as Dimethyl Isosorbide, is a colorless, transparent liquid with a special odor. Dimethyl Isosorbide is stable at normal temperature and pressure. As a bio-based high-boiling green solvent, Dimethyl Isosorbide is highly miscible with most surfactants, co-solvents, dyes, and peptides. Dimethyl Isosorbide is widely used in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics. In the pharmaceutical field, Dimethyl Isosorbide can be used as a pharmaceutical excipient to stabilize, dissolve active ingredients, and promote their transdermal penetration, commonly used in the preparation of creams, emulsions, and sprays for topical use. In the cosmetics industry,Dimethyl Isosorbide significantly enhances the effectiveness of products such as sunscreens, anti-wrinkle, freckle removal, acne treatment, skincare moisturizers, weight loss, breast enhancement creams, hair growth agents, and hair dyes. It is an ideal solvent, penetrant, and carrier, and its mild and non-irritating nature makes it suitable for sensitive skin formulations.
Dimethyl Isosorbide is a very popular multifunctional cosmetic ingredient and is the top solvent for chemical sunscreens. Dimethyl Isosorbide effectively dissolves and stabilizes these high-concentration UV absorbers, preventing them from crystallizing in the formula, ensuring the SPF efficacy and transparency of sunscreen products. It also dissolves various fragrances and essential oils, improving their compatibility in aqueous systems. Additionally, it acts as a penetration enhancer, gently and reversibly temporarily altering the structure of the stratum corneum, reducing skin barrier resistance, thus promoting the transdermal absorption of other active ingredients (such as vitamins, whitening components, antioxidants, etc.), enhancing their bioavailability and efficacy.
At the same time, Dimethyl Isosorbide serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer, helping to stabilize emulsions and creams, improving the texture and appearance of the formulation. Dimethyl Isosorbide has a refreshing, non-greasy texture with a silky feel. Dimethyl Isosorbide imparts a dry, light application sensation to the product, without any greasy residue, and evaporates without leaving any residue. Dimethyl Isosorbide also reduces the drying and irritating effects caused by other components (such as ethanol) and has some hygroscopic properties, helping the skin retain moisture.
