ISOPHORONE DIAMINE SESQUIMALEATE.

Insufficient Data CAS 2360920-97-2 (generic) / HAIR CONDITIONING

Isophorone Diamine Sesquimaleate is a specialized compound primarily investigated for its capacity to repair and reinforce the structural integrity of hair. It achieves this by forming new disulfide bonds and restoring existing damaged ones within the hair shaft. Currently, its application is predominantly confined to hair care formulations.

Summary

Science

Mechanism of Action

On a molecular level, this ingredient is documented to interact with the protein structure of hair, facilitating the creation and maintenance of disulfide bonds.
