Hydrolyzed Keratin Hair Conditione Raw Material Protein Surfactant
Product Description:
DioPotin™ KQ230 keratin is a protective protein found in hair, feathers, wool and nails. Keratin is different from other proteins in that it is rich in cysteine (a sulfur-containing amino acid unique to keratin), which is covalently cross-linked into disulfide bonds to enhance the toughness of hair. It forms a flexible, smooth keratin film that covers the hair shaft, reducing split ends and improving the appearance and grooming of the hair. Keratin can bind moisture to hair, improve hair shine, volume and grooming, enhance hair elasticity, softness and moisture, make hair bright, easy to comb. Effectively supplement the loss of hair proteins and lipids, repair damaged hair; Good and stable water solubility can significantly improve the moisturizing and conditioning properties of the cleansed products.
Hydrolyzed keratin liquid is a water-soluble, protein-rich ingredient from wool, feathers, or horns, broken down (hydrolyzed) into smaller peptides for easier absorption, used in cosmetics to strengthen and repair damaged hair and skin by forming protective, moisturizing coatings, improving manageability, and boosting hydration in shampoos, conditioners, and lotions. It's known for improving hair strength and reducing breakage, adding softness to skin and hair, and stabilizing lather in cleansers.
What it is
Source: Derived from natural sources like sheep's wool, feathers, or horns.
Process: Keratin protein is broken down into smaller, water-soluble pieces through hydrolysis (using enzymes or acid).
Form: A clear to amber liquid, often blended with glycerin and water.
Benefits in personal care
Hair: Strengthens, repairs damage (especially from bleaching/perming), reduces breakage, adds moisture, improves manageability, and protects from environmental stress.
Skin & Nails: Conditions, softens, and hydrates skin and nails.
Formulation: Can stabilize lather in shampoos and body washes.
Common uses
Hair Care: Shampoos, conditioners, hair masks, styling products.
Skin Care: Lotions, creams, liquid hand/face cleansers, body washes.
Key properties
Penetration: Small peptide size allows it to penetrate the hair shaft better than native keratin.
Compatibility: Works with both rinse-off and leave-on products.
Safety: Considered safe for cosmetic use.
