Fish collagen is good alternative to traditional collagen originated from animal such as bovine and swine. Since Fish collagen has similar amino acid composition to it, it exhibits moisturizing effect and imparts softness to skin and hair as used in personal care products.
Promois SIG series is a derivative bonded with a silyl group at the N-terminal of the hydrolyzed protien (peptide). It is a "Heat active ingredient", having thermal reactive unique feature, that is different from other peptide derivatives.
Coated layer on the hair surface is formed by the Promois SIG-treatement and heating processes using hair-dryer or hair-iron.
"Heat active effect" , Protecting hair from damages caused by heat and improving the hair strength and texture, is exerted by the layer.

Heat active effect of Promois SIG series
-
Formation of coated layer on the hair surface
Evaluation method:
Damaged hairs treated by Promois SIG were used in this test. Hair surface of test hairs with heating process by hair dryer (65°C, 5min) or without heating process were observed by scanning electron microscope (x 2000).
Control:Damaged hair treated with ion-exchanged water
-

Evaluation method:
Damaged hairs treated by Promois SIG were used in this test. Smoothness of test hairs with heating process by hair dryer (65°C, 5min) or without heating process were evaluated by friction tester.
Control:
Damaged hair treated with ion-exchanged water.
-
Improvement of hair strength
Evaluation method:
Damaged hairs treated by Promois SIG wre used in this test. Hair strength of test hairs with heating process by hair iron (180°C, 10sec) or without heating process were evaluated by hair rheology analyzer.
Control:
Damaged hair treated with ion-exchanged water.
