Hydrolyzed Keratin Powder

Hair Care

Hydrolyzed keratin has protective effects on hair and can effectively repair damaged hair. It penetrates into the hair interior, replenishes missing keratin, strengthens hair toughness, improves hair texture, and leaves hair healthier. It is widely used in hair care cosmetics, including mousse, hair spray, shampoo, conditioner, hair treatment cream, cold perm agents, hair dyes and decolorants.

Specific Functions in Hair Care

As an important constituent of hair, hydrolyzed keratin provides nutritional supplementation. When hair is damaged by perming, dyeing, ultraviolet radiation and other external factors, it repairs impaired keratin structure, enhances hair toughness, and reduces breakage caused by fragile hair.

Feed Additives

Rich in cystine, tyrosine and serine, hydrolyzed keratin promotes fur growth of livestock and poultry, improves skin ruddy complexion and hair gloss of pigs, and enhances the feather brightness of chickens.

Food Additives

Feather keratin is abundant in umami amino acids such as glutamic acid and aspartic acid, which can be developed as a new type of food additive for the food processing industry.

Nutrient Fortifier

It can increase the protein content and nutritional value of food.

Usage and Dosage

Hydrolyzed keratin can be applied in bread, biscuits, meat products, condiments and other foods. The addition amount is determined according to specific formulas and production processes to ensure food safety and compliance. The general dosage ranges from 0.5% to 5% of the total food weight.

Agricultural Applications

Amino acids, derivatives and metal complexes prepared from hydrolyzed keratin have dual effects of sterilization, disease prevention and growth stimulation for crops. They can be used as fungicides, insecticides, herbicides and plant growth promoters.

Summary

Hydrolyzed keratin is widely applied in many fields. Especially in hair care, its unique repairing and protective properties make it an essential ingredient in a variety of hair care products.

Reduce hair frizz, shedding and breakage.

Improve smoothness and elasticity by virtue of its moisture-binding capacity.

Essentially, hydrolyzed keratin helps rebuild the hair's natural protective layer from within by increasing the diameter of each hair strand. It delivers a fuller appearance and replenishes lost proteins.

When added to hair care formulations, hydrolyzed keratin forms a protective film on the hair surface while restoring natural shine.

Hydrolyzed keratin also benefits the skin by replenishing moisture and improving skin elasticity.

Thanks to its moisturizing properties, shampoos and conditioners containing hydrolyzed keratin are ideal for fragile, dry and fine hair.

It tames unruly hair and makes hair more manageable.

Since hair is naturally composed of keratin, this ingredient is one of the best proteins for repairing chemically treated and severely damaged hair. Chemical hair procedures often break down cysteine, leaving hair weak and brittle. Hydrolyzed keratin replenishes lost cysteine, increases tensile strength and minimizes further damage.

It also boosts hair volume, strengthens hair fibers and restores luster.
