Molecular formula: C8H14O4
Molecular weight: 174.19
EINEC: 226-159-8
Purity: 99%
Appearance:
Colorless transparent oily liquid, non-irritating, non-toxic and very safe.
Solubility:
Dimethyl Isosorbide ( DMI ) is soluble in a variety of ingredients including water, cottonseed oil, isopropanol, isopropyl myristate, propylene glycol, polysorbate 20, and polysorbate 80. It is insoluble in hydrogenated castor oil, lanolin, mineral oils or silicone oil (dimethicone).
Introduction:
Dimethyl Isosorbide (DMI) is a high purity solvent and carrier which offers a safe, effective delivery enhancement mechanism for active ingredients in personal care products. Sunless tanners, facial and eye-zone treatments, skin serums, anti-acne formulations and make-up removers are just some of the products whose performance can be improved with the use of Dimethyl Isosorbide (DMI) in formulation. In addition to improving performance, its use as an epidermal penetration enhancer can allow formulators to reduce the amount of actives required to achieve effects, resulting in reduced formulation costs, and lower skin irritation with aggressive active ingredients.
Funtions:
Enhanced penetration of actives to the epidermis, enabling targeted delivery.
A lower level of skin irritation with a reduction in the required concentration level of aggressive actives.
Improved formulation shelf stability, including those susceptible to hydrolysis and transesterfication.
Miscibility with most organic solvents and non-ionic surfactants.
Incorporation within many product forms, including clear gels.
A long history of safe usage.
Ability to transport water soluble actives into skin, without recrystallization of the active.
Ability to produce formulations with standard equipment, without the need for flammable materials handling.
