Description

FSS Corn Hydrolysate PF DRK

Corn is an excellent source of protein and carbohydrates as well as vitamins and minerals.

Interestingly, in addition to water miscible proteins, corn is also a source of a unique protein, zein, which is alcohol soluble. Corn proteins have both elastic and binding properties that offer a wide range of use in cosmetic applications. They can be used as emulsifiers as well as too soothe the irritating effects of surfactants such as Sodium Lauryl Sulphate. The proteins can also form films which help to firm and lift the skin in addition to providing nourishing and conditioning benefits.

It is a water-soluble product with strong moisture binding properties. The pH is relatively neutral so it does not irritate the skin. The product has film forming properties rendering it an effective moisturizer providing both protection and a conditioned feel to hair and skin. As a result, it can be used in a wide range of cosmetic applications such as shampoos, conditioners, facial treatments, color cosmetics and hair fixatives. FSS Corn Hydrolysate PF DRK is comprised of peptides with specific amino acids that aid in improving the elasticity and texture of skin as well as its formation and repair. These amino acids are also believed to neutralize free radicals and toxins as well as to help slow down the aging process. Like with any proteins, one must remember that levels of alcohol or tannins will cause the proteins to precipitate from solution. Reducing sugars found in self tanning compounds such as DHA and erythrulose will also react with the amino groups causing discoloration over time so they should be avoided.
