organosilicon is also an important functional component in personal care and household products. It can ensure that some products can still maintain their quality and effect for a long time after purchase. Silicone enhances the performance of personal care products we use every day, from color cosmetics to sunscreen, from hair care products to antiperspirants, all of which benefit from silicone. In addition, with silicone, some household products such as detergents, fabric softeners, kitchen and bathroom cleaners, polishes and waxes will also become more supple, effective and beautiful
