Trade name | PEA AC COMPLEX |
INCI name | Pisum sativum (Pea) Protein & Potassium Cocoate |
CAS # | – & 61789-30-8 |
Available type | Liquid |
Natural origin index (ISO 16128) | 0.94 |
CHARACTERISTICS
Non-hydrolyzed pea proteins with very high molecular weight for the formulation of mild cleansing products. The complex formation is obtained by extraction with potassium cocoate and is reversible: only electrostatic and hydrophobic bonds are involved without altering the primary and secondary structure of the original protein macromolecule. The complex high molecular weight provides skin protection and film-forming effect during cleansing.
BENEFITS
- Film-forming effect
- Protective effect against surfactants
APPLICATIONS
- Cleansing products where a protective and conditioning action is required
