Multipotent hydrophobic polymer network: HenkelRecent Research Landscape

Chemical damage to the hair cuticle leads to structural failure and breakage. These formulations engineer specific surfactant-active complexes to restore fiber integrity and prevent mechanical degradation.

What technical problems is Henkel addressing in Multipotent hydrophobic polymer network?

Cosmetic pigment washout degradation

(11)evidences

Chemical and mechanical stressors cause degradation of the internal hair cortex and cuticle integrity. Restoring these structural bonds prevents breakage and restores fiber resilience.

Chemical damage to hair fibers

(7)evidences

Age-related degradation of hair density and scalp health. Mitigating biological decline prevents permanent hair loss and structural thinning.
