Product Description
Melitan peptide active as a functional ingredient for pigment regulation and formulation stability systems
Melitan is a specialized peptide raw material with INCI Glycerin Water Dextran and Acetyl Hexapeptide 1 designed for use as a functional ingredient in modern formulation systems targeting pigment related processes and visual performance control. In global B2B manufacturing this ingredient is widely used in cosmetic systems SPA applications and professional formulations requiring controlled sensory and visual characteristics.
From a technological perspective Melitan is water soluble and integrates easily into aqueous phases ensuring uniform distribution without affecting viscosity or structural integrity. It remains stable across a controlled pH range and performs reliably in industrial manufacturing making it suitable for contract production and scalable formulation systems.
Properties and functional role
Acts as a peptide based functional active influencing pigment related processes and improving visual uniformity. It supports formulation balance and compatibility with a wide range of ingredients.
Does not affect rheology and integrates well with emulsifiers humectants and stabilizers.
Properties and result
Enhances formulation stability and visual consistency while maintaining performance during storage and processing.
Provides predictable system behavior and improved formulation control.
Purpose
Used in cosmetic formulations SPA systems and professional products targeting visual and pigment related characteristics. Also applied in contract manufacturing for stable and controlled formulation systems.
Application
Used in creams serums gels masks emulsions and aqueous systems where uniform distribution and stability are required.
