Shanxi Jinjin Chemical Industrial Co., Ltd. wrote that âThere are no animal ingredients in the silicon dioxide.â. Yianlid Industrial Co., Ltd. said in an email that ââ¦There is not any animal content in the [silicon dioxide]â and sent a certificate analysis for silicon dioxide.
Dimethicone, also known as polydimethylsiloxane, is a silicon-based polymer that is a man-made synthetic molecule made up of repeating units called monomers. Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust after oxygen, and silicon dioxide is also known as sand, commonly found on beaches and shores.Dimethicone can also be found in many cooking oils, processed foods and in fast food items such as chicken nuggets and French fries.ilicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust after oxygen, and silicon dioxide is also known as sand, commonly found on beaches and shores.
