NatFibra™ SP Series: Fully biobased high-efficiency delivery carrier and stabilizer for cleansing and hair care products
NatFibra™ SP is a fully biobased material derived from fermented bacterial cellulose, specifically designed for cleansing and hair care products, offering high-efficiency delivery and suspension stabilization.
Core functions
High-efficiency delivery carrier:
NatFibra™ SP can efficiently deliver active ingredients in cleansing and hair care products, ensuring their stable release and uniform distribution.
Suspension stabilizer
Leveraging its unique three-dimensional (3D) network structure (α-network), it can stably suspend solid microparticles in products, such as petals, exfoliating particles, and fragrance microcapsules.
Rheological performance optimization:
While providing suspension performance, it does not significantly alter the apparent viscosity of the product, maintaining the original texture of the formulation.
1,Key Features
Ultra-high aspect ratio and high elastic modulus
The fiber diameter of bacterial cellulose is only 20–40 nm, with lengths reaching the micron scale. It possesses an ultra-high aspect ratio and high Young’s modulus, enabling the formation of a stable three-dimensional network structure.
Stable α-network structure
In cleansing and hair care products such as shampoos and body washes, NatFibra™ SP can form a three-dimensional network structure with nanoscale diameter (α-network), effectively trapping solid particles and active ingredients.
Wet combing effect and foam stability
Enhances the wet combing effect of cleansing and hair care products, making hair easier to comb while also improving foam stability and enhancing the user experienc
Green and environmentally friendly
A fully biobased material, naturally biodegradable, aligned with the principles of green chemistry and sustainable development.
Applications
Shampoo:
It stably suspends solid particles such as exfoliating beads and fragrance microcapsules, enhancing the product’s functionality and user experience. It also efficiently delivers active ingredients (such as plant extracts and vitamins), improving hair care performance.
Body wash
It suspends components such as petals and exfoliating particles, enhancing the product’s visual appeal and functionality. It maintains a lightweight formulation texture while improving foam stability.
Other cleansing and hair care products
Suitable for products such as hand soaps and body scrubs, providing suspension stability and efficient delivery functions.
Advantages
