The Flutec® PC Fluids range are a range of high purity perfluorocarbons. They are lipophobic and hydrophobic forming a third phase which facilitates emulsion formulation. They have a high gas dissolving ability, excellent toxicological profile and a variety of other properties which make them a superb additive to cosmetic formulations.

PC6 (INCI Name - Perfluorodecalin) is a physical carrier of gases, notably Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide and is used to solve cosmetic problems such as Carbon Dioxide cleansing or Oxygen enrichment. Although PC6 has been the main material of choice for most applications, it is just one of a range of products available to suit specific requirements.
