TDI OXIDIZED MICROCRYSTALLINE CERA

Description

TDI Oxidized Microcrystalline Cera is a specialized wax derivative used in advanced haircare formulations. This ingredient is created through the controlled oxidation of microcrystalline wax, resulting in a substance with enhanced properties for hair styling and treatment products.

The oxidation process alters the molecular structure of the wax, increasing its polarity and improving its compatibility with other haircare ingredients. This modification allows TDI Oxidized Microcrystalline Cera to form a flexible, yet durable film on the hair shaft, providing long-lasting hold and style retention.

Key benefits of this ingredient include its ability to impart shine, reduce frizz, and protect hair from environmental stressors. It also helps to improve the texture and manageability of various hair types, making it particularly useful in products designed for dry, damaged, or chemically treated hair.

TDI Oxidized Microcrystalline Cera is often incorporated into hair pomades, waxes, and styling creams. Its unique properties allow for the creation of versatile formulations that offer both hold and pliability, catering to a wide range of hairstyling needs while maintaining a natural look and feel.
