IPDI/PEG-15 SOY GLYCINATE COPOLYMER

Description

IPDI/PEG-15 Soy Glycinate Copolymer is a multifunctional ingredient used in advanced haircare formulations. This innovative copolymer combines the properties of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) and PEG-15 soy glycinate to create a powerful conditioning and film-forming agent.

The copolymer forms a lightweight, flexible film on hair strands, providing excellent moisture retention and protection against environmental stressors. Its unique structure allows for enhanced detangling and smoothing effects, reducing friction between hair fibers and improving overall manageability.

IPDI/PEG-15 Soy Glycinate Copolymer is particularly effective in leave-in treatments, conditioners, and styling products. It offers superior humidity resistance, helping to maintain hairstyles and combat frizz in various weather conditions. The ingredient also contributes to improved shine and softness without weighing down the hair.

This copolymer is compatible with a wide range of haircare formulations and can be used across different hair types. Its film-forming properties make it an excellent choice for products designed to protect hair from heat styling damage and color fading.
