What Is Silk Peptide?
Silk peptide consists of smaller peptide components obtained from the fibroin protein in silkworm silk. Fibroin forms the structural core of the silk fibre and differs from sericin, the protein surrounding that core. Hydrolysis produces a protein hydrolysate rather than intact silk fibre.
Hydrolyzed Silk is the cosmetic ingredient name used for this material. Hair-conditioning, skin-conditioning, humectant and antistatic functions explain its use across personal care formulas. This silk-derived ingredient belongs to the ZXCHEM animal protein range alongside other protein hydrolysates used in ingredient development.
