Product Description

This ingredient will be discontinued by 1st January 2021 due to Choose Cruelty Free Rule changes.

Silk Peptide is a highly purified grade of natural silk derived from silk proteins. The silk has been processed by extracting the silk protein then breaking those longer chains up into shorter peptides so that have a higher substansitity to the skin and hair.

Solubility:  Water,  add to the water phase and preferably when cooled to 50C or lower.

Use Levels: 0.1-5%

pH Stability:  The pH at which Silk peptide is neutral is 2.5 which is the lowest of most common protein derived peptide sources.  The further above or below that pH your product, the more highly charged the peptides and therefore the higher the potential substantivity to the hair or skin.  As most skin and haircare products are formulated at pH 4-8 this peptide is expected to have old a negative charge so the best way to ensure good adhesion is by placing it into a formula that contains a film forming thickener such as carbomer, xanthan or hydroxyethyl cellulose. 

Amino Acid Composition:

Hydrophobic     33%    (39% in Keratin)

Hydrophillic      13%    (34% in Keratin)

Neutral             54%    (27% in Keratin)

Based on the above analysis this peptide is expected to bind less moisture to the hair than Keratin but should provide the skin, including the scalp with many of the essential amino acids needed for efficient barrier protection and strength.
