Description

Protein Hydrolyzates, Wheat, Reaction Products With Palmitoyl Chloride is a chemically modified wheat protein derivative, where hydrolyzed wheat protein is reacted with palmitoyl chloride to introduce lipophilic fatty acid chains. This modification is crucial as it enhances the protein's compatibility with oils and waxes, transforming it into a highly effective substantive conditioning and film-forming agent. It is primarily needed by formulators in the personal care, cosmetic, and hair care industries seeking natural-origin ingredients that provide superior moisturization, manageability, and a silky feel.

Application

• Hair Care Products: A key substantive conditioning agent in shampoos, conditioners, hair masks, and leave-in treatments to repair damaged hair, reduce frizz, and improve combability.
• Skin Care Formulations: Used in creams, lotions, and serums as a moisturizing and film-forming agent to enhance skin feel, provide a silky after-feel, and improve barrier function.
• Color Cosmetics: Incorporated into foundations, mascaras, and lipsticks to improve pigment dispersion, product spreadability, and long-wear characteristics.
• Personal Cleansers: Added to syndet bars and creamy body washes to mitigate the drying effects of surfactants and deposit a protective, conditioning layer on the skin.
• Professional Styling Products: Functions as a conditioning and fixative component in styling gels, mousses, and sprays to provide hold without stiffness or stickiness.
