IOTA 345 presents as a colorless, transparent fluid with specific technical attributes that include a refractive index ranging from 1.3900 to 1.4050 and a specific gravity between 0.950 and 0.970 at 25°C. Its viscosity, measured at 3.0 to 8.0 cst at the same temperature, ensures ease of use and formulation flexibility. Key features such as easy emulsification and compatibility further broaden its appeal. The product's volatility, coupled with its non-residual nature on skin and hair, contributes to its suitability for a multitude of applications. From skin and hair care creams and lotions to massage creams and antiperspirants, IOTA 345 can be utilized either standalone or blended with other cosmetic fluids like mineral oils, isopropanol, and nutritional oils to create stable solutions. Packaging in 25kg or 200kg drums facilitates handling, while storage and transport require adherence to safety measures including avoiding heat, open flames, and exposure to moisture, acids, alkalis, and impurities. With a shelf life of 24 months at room temperature, IOTA 345 remains a reliable and effective choice for cosmetic formulations.
