Cationic methacrylamide silicone surfactant network: LorealRecent Research Landscape

Inconsistent deposition of conditioning agents on keratinous fibers leads to poor sensory performance and product instability. This architecture utilizes precise ratios of bis-amine silicones and mixed cationic surfactants to stabilize the interfacial film and ensure uniform coating.

What technical problems is Loreal addressing in Cationic methacrylamide silicone surfactant network?

Unstable lipid phase separation

(18)evidences

High concentrations of diverse fatty substances and surfactants often lead to phase separation or poor texture. Ensuring structural integrity in complex greasy mixtures prevents product failure.

Hair fiber surface damage

(16)evidences

The combination of diverse silicone types and polymers often leads to physical instability and layering in cosmetic formulations. Preventing this separation ensures uniform delivery and product shelf-life.

Keratin fiber surface degradation

(10)evidences

Incompatible silicone and fatty phases tend to phase separate or undergo coalescence. Stabilizing these complex mixtures prevents product degradation and ensures uniform delivery of active ingredients.

Incompatible ingredient phase separation

(6)evidences

Mechanical and environmental damage to hair fibers leads to structural instability and poor tactile properties. Addressing this degradation restores fiber integrity and improves cosmetic performance.
