Triethoxycaprylylsilane
A silane used to coat mineral pigments and filters so they disperse evenly and resist clumping.
What it does
Triethoxycaprylylsilane is a silane used as a surface treatment. It coats mineral particles such as titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and iron oxides, making them water-repellent so they disperse smoothly and evenly, resist clumping, and wear better. It is a particle-coating, dispersion ingredient rather than a skin active.
