Industry Background

Traditional silicone-based conditioning agents in shampoos typically use a "polymerize-then-emulsify" process, resulting in larger particle sizes (usually >300nm) and thick film formation. While improving smoothness, this often causes "slippery residue" and "post-wash hair flattening," a core pain point in high-end shampoo formulations.

Technical Breakthrough & Product Implementation

Hony leverages its domestically pioneered "polymerization-emulsification integrated technology", adopting a disruptive "polymerize-while-emulsify" process:

· Precise particle control: Synchronized reaction-emulsification stabilizes silicone particle size at ~100nm (only 1/3 of traditional processes).

· Ultra-thin film formation: Nano-scale particles create a 0.1μm ultra-thin transparent film on hair, evenly covering cuticle gaps to enhance smoothness while avoiding heavy buildup.

Case: High-End Shampoo Upgrade

A leading brand aimed to develop a "high-conditioning, non-heavy" premium shampoo targeting "oily hair + lightweight volume" users.

Hony’s solution: Replaced traditional silicone with core product Hony 101A (100nm silicone emulsion).

Formulation Compatibility & Irritation Testing

· Anti-dandruff agent optimization: Reduced pyrithione zinc (ZPT) from 1.0% to 0.8% while maintaining:
▶ Antibacterial rate: 98.5% (vs. 98.7% in original, ASTM E2149 compliant).
▶ Foam height: 180mm (equivalent to original 185mm).

· Skin irritation: Patch test (n=200) showed irritation rate dropped from 8.5% (original) to 3.0% (Hony 101A, p<0.05, statistically significant).

Testing Methods

1. Particle size: Laser granulometer (D50) after 5-min ultrasonic dispersion.

2. Comb resistance: Peak force measured on 10cm hair bundles (post-wash wet state).

3. Volume: Pressure-volume curve analysis of dry hair bundles.

4. Residue: UV spectrophotometry of fluorescently labeled silicone on scalp simulators.

All data verified by SGS, confirming Hony 101A resolves traditional silicone’s "heavy deposition" issue while maintaining conditioning, offering a superior technical path for high-end hair care.
