Product Description:
DioPotin® W110B Hydrolyzed wheat protein is a low molecular weight protein extracted from soft wheat, and its main component is the amino acid gliadin. It has moisturizing and antioxidant effects, can supplement the nutrients and protein lost by hair, improve and repair fragile and astringent damaged hair.
Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein (HWP) is wheat protein broken down into smaller, water-soluble peptides, making it easily absorbed by skin and hair for strengthening, moisturizing, and repairing. Used widely in shampoos, conditioners, and skin creams, it penetrates hair to reduce breakage, add volume, and smooth the cuticle, while hydrating skin and improving texture. It's a popular natural ingredient in beauty products, providing conditioning and film-forming benefits, and is generally considered safe for those with gluten sensitivities in cosmetic use, though it's derived from wheat.

1, Repair damaged hair and improve the moisturizing performance of shampoo and conditioner
2, Improve the luster of hair cuticle, improve the texture of hair, and enhance the combability
3, Good alcohol tolerance
4, It is compatible with anionic and amphoteric detergents and can be used in transparent products;
5, Plant protein is hydrolyzed and easy to form amino acid polypeptide, which has excellent moisturizing ability and significantly increases the wetness of hair tissue.
Key Benefits
Hair Strengthening: Penetrates hair fibers to repair from within, reducing breakage by over 80% and increasing strength.
Moisture Retention: Acts as a humectant, attracting and retaining moisture in both hair and skin.
Smoothing & Softening: Creates a protective film, leaving hair smoother, softer, and more manageable.
Volume & Texture: Adds body and volume to hair, improving its overall appearance.
Skin Conditioning: Hydrates skin, improves firmness, and can reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
How It's Made & Used
Hydrolysis: Wheat protein undergoes enzymatic or acid hydrolysis (reaction with water/acid) to break down large proteins into smaller, more effective molecules.
Cosmetic Formulations: Added to the water phase of products like shampoos, conditioners, serums, lotions, and sun care items.
Appearance: Typically an amber-colored liquid with a faint odor.
Gluten & Safety
Gluten-Free Status: While derived from wheat, the hydrolysis process significantly alters its structure, making it unlikely to cause reactions in most gluten-sensitive individuals when used topically in cosmetics.
Not for Ingestion: It's for external use in beauty products only, not for consumption.
