Polyphenol polyoxyalkylene hydrogen bond networks: LorealRecent Research Landscape

Inconsistent adhesion and viscosity in topical applications lead to poor durability and sensory performance. These innovations stabilize keratin coatings and active delivery through precise intermolecular cross-linking.

What technical problems is Loreal addressing in Polyphenol polyoxyalkylene hydrogen bond networks?

Inaccurate hair texture assessment

(9)evidences

Subjective or incorrect identification of complex hair textures leads to suboptimal styling outcomes. Standardizing characterization ensures precise tool and technique application.

Keratin surface adhesion instability

(8)evidences

Weak adhesion and poor durability of topical films on keratinous substrates. Improving structural integrity of surface coatings prevents premature degradation and product washout.

Inaccessible physical user interface

(6)evidences

Sealed or buttonless enclosures prevent traditional manual input for state changes. Overcoming this limitation allows for environmental hardening and simplified device form factors.
