Hydrolyzed Keratin Powder

Premium Hydrolyzed Keratin Powder 90% - Professional Hair & Skin Repair Solution for Cosmetic Formulations

Yanxi Biotech produces Pharmaceutical Grade Hydrolyzed Keratin Powder, 90% purity criteria, with ultra low molecular weight peptides (500-3,000 Daltons) for deep tissue penetration in professional cosmetic applications. Our ISO 22000, HACCP, Kosher and Halal certified plant manufactures this off-white fine powder by controlled enzymatic hydrolysis resulting in 95%+ bioavailable cysteine-rich protein complexes. Since 2010, Our product fulfils strict international cosmetic standards with ash content ≤5%, moisture ≤5% and heavy metals ≤10ppm. It is 100% water soluble and may be incorporated into shampoo, serum and hair mask formulations for use in over 100 global markets.

What Makes Our Hydrolyzed Keratin Powder Superior?

This premium substance repairs damaged hair and skin at a molecular scale. Unlike original keratin proteins with complicated cross-linked structures, our hydrolysed version is composed of low-molecular-weight peptides capable of effectively penetrating hair cuticles and skin barriers.

The powder reconstructs structure by replacing cysteine-rich protein matrices depleted from chemical treatments, thermal styling or environmental exposure. The molecular weight distribution is optimised to allow absorption at the cortical level while still providing surface film formation.

No precipitation problems will occur in aqueous solutions. The 100% pass thru 80 mesh particle size enables homogeneous dispersion in anionic surfactant systems and acidic conditioning settings.

Technical Specifications​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Key Performance Advantages

Deep Penetration Technologies

The ultra low molecular weight solution penetrates into the hair cortical layers to heal damaged follicles at a cellular level. This decreases breaking by 40-60% over surface conditioners.

Superior Solubility Profile

Water soluble fine Hydrolyzed Keratin Powder solves the formulation problems. No strange smell means approval by consumers in the high-end personal care market.

Mechanism of Structural Repair

High cysteine concentration can repair disulphide bonds in keratinous tissues. This improves the lustre and flexibility of hair and strengthens the skin barrier function.

Professional Applications

Formulations for Hair Care

This substance can be added to shampoos, conditioners and hair masks at a concentration of 1-5%. It gives real bonding better than synthetic polymers.

Film-forming characteristics offer protection against moisture loss. It works especially well for bleached or heat-damaged, chemically-treated hair.

Skin Care Products

For anti-aging advantages, formulate serums, creams and lotions at 0.5-3% concentration. The peptides minimise transepidermal water loss and improve the suppleness of the skin.

Speciality Treatments

Professional salons employ 5-10% strength treatments for rigorous repair programs. The substance is pasteurisation stable in leave-in conditioning sprays.

Quality Assurance System

Quality control methods are performed at seven stages at our production plant. We map the amino acid profile on every batch to guarantee that we exceed industry guidelines for cysteine concentration.

Microbial testing is performed in accordance with cosmetic safety requirements and includes a verification of Total Plate Count of less than 1000 cfu/g. Heavy Metal Analysis shows compliance for Lead, Arsenic, Mercury and Cadmium.

We follow the raw materials from the sourcing of the sheep wool to the enzymatic hydrolysis. The final items are documented with a Certificate of Analysis prior to distribution.

Packaging & Shipping

We have many packing options: 1kg aluminium foil packets for laboratory experiments, 5kg boxes for small batch production and 25kg fibre drums for industrial manufacturing.

All packages come with sealed moisture barrier protection. Shipping : Within 1-3 working days after confirmed payment.

Our logistics partners ship internationally with temperature regulated transit. European and US warehouses to facilitate speedier regional distribution.

FAQ

Q: What is the water solubility of the product?

A: To dissolve the powder in water at room temperature, swirl gently for 2-3 minutes until fully dissolved. It stays clear not cloudy in pH 4.0-8.0 ranges.

Q: Is this product suitable for use in vegetarian formulations?

A: This is an animal-based substance (sheep wool). For vegetarian products we suggest you to consider our plant-based protein hydrolysates as an alternative.

Q: What is the lead time for bulk orders?

A: Standard production runs are finished within 3-5 days, including enzymatic hydrolysis, spray drying and COA certification procedures. Rush orders are processed before all others.

Q: How does molecular weight affect performance?

A: Lower molecular weight fractions (<1000 Da) penetrate deeper into the hair cortex. Higher fractions (>3000 Da) condition the surface. The benefits of the 500–3,000 Da range provide a good compromise.

Q: Under what storage conditions is the product stable?

A: Keep in airtight containers at room temperature and avoid direct sunlight. Prevent moisture absorption by keeping relative humidity below 60%.
