Potassium Cocoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen

Potassium Cocoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is a potassium salt of the derivative of the reaction of collagen polypeptides and fatty acid. It has excellent foaming and cleansing properties and forms clear solutions at a pH > 6.5.

Due to its stability at a high pH, Potassium Cocoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is considered to be especially suited for use as a surfactant and wetting agent in permanent wave lotions, hair dyes, and hair relaxer formulations. It is used as a foam texturizer and conditioning agent for shampoos.

Another option of Potassium Cocoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen is a marine-based foaming polypeptide derived from the collagen of fish skin. It offers the cosmetic formulator an alternative to animal proteins; without compromising any of the product attributes.

Marine Potassium Cocoyl Hydrolyzed Collagen forms clear solutions above a pH of 5, and is highly compatible with hair dyes and hair relaxer formulations. Excellent foaming and cleansing properties are typical of products formulated with this fish skin-derived ingredient.
