Description

Tea-Abietoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is a chemically modified derivative of collagen, where hydrolyzed collagen peptides are esterified with abietic acid, a principal component of rosin, and further functionalized with tea-derived polyphenols. This unique synthesis creates a multifunctional ingredient that combines the film-forming and moisturizing properties of collagen with the adhesive, emulsifying, and antioxidant characteristics of its modifiers. It is particularly valuable in advanced cosmetic and personal care formulations seeking natural-derived, high-performance actives. Key industries that utilize this specialty chemical include premium skincare, haircare, and nutraceutical product development.

Application

• Anti-aging Skincare Serums & Creams: Functions as a bioactive film-forming agent to improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines by delivering sustained moisturization and antioxidant protection.
• Hair Conditioning & Styling Products: Used in conditioners, masks, and styling gels to provide gloss, improve manageability, and strengthen hair fibers through protein deposition and film formation.
• Functional Nutraceutical & Cosmecutical Formulations: Incorporated into capsules or powders for joint and skin health supplements, leveraging the bioavailability of hydrolyzed collagen combined with enhanced bioactivity.
• Premium Natural Cosmetics: Serves as a natural-derived alternative to synthetic polymers in clean beauty products, offering emulsifying and stabilizing properties.
• Wound Healing & Dermatological Preparations: Applied in advanced topical gels or patches for its potential to support tissue repair and provide a protective barrier.
• Biomedical & Tissue Engineering Materials: Investigated for use in scaffolds or coatings due to its modified collagen structure, which can influence cell adhesion and proliferation.

Quality Control

Our Tea-Abietoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is produced under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistency, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as degree of substitution, peptide profile, and antioxidant activity are available upon request. We adhere to relevant GMP guidelines for cosmetic and nutraceutical ingredients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which may affect product performance.
