Function Description:
A naturally derived oligosaccharide ingredient that forms a smooth, flexible film on hair fibers to reduce flaking and increase hold while maintaining flexibility; also improves suppleness and tensile strength of damaged hair and can be incorporated into rinse-off and leave-on hair care formulations.
Applications & Uses:
Intended for hair care formulations such as shampoos, conditioners, styling gels, hair mists, hair creams, styling lotions, hair serums and leave-in treatments; used (1–10%) to reduce flaking in gels, boost hold when combined with fixing polymers, and to improve suppleness and tensile strength of damaged hair.
Benefits:
Naturally derived and biodegradable (ISO16128 compliant); reduces flaking of styling products; enhances hold and flexibility when used with fixing polymers; improves suppleness and tensile strength of damaged hair; colorless and odorless; Halal certified; easy-to-use aqueous solution supplied in 25 kg tins; 12-month shelf life.
Performance Attributes:
Provides improved hold (higher bending force) without sacrificing flexibility; reduces flaking in styling products; forms a non-crystallizing, smooth flexible film due to panose and isomaltose composition; biodegradable and meets ISO16128 (1.0) natural index; effective at suggested usage levels (1–10% in hair care).
