SpecPed SC-MH17 as a peptide biotech ingredient for stable hair, lash and skin formulations in industrial manufacturing
SpecPed SC-MH17 is a high-performance cosmetic raw material based on Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17 designed as a functional ingredient for hair, lash and skin care formulations. It is supplied in a stabilized water-glycerin system that ensures uniform distribution and consistent behavior in formulation systems.
From a technological standpoint, the ingredient integrates easily into aqueous, gel and emulsion systems. It does not cause turbidity and maintains formulation stability. It is highly compatible with surfactants, emulsifiers and active ingredients. The peptide remains stable in a pH range of 4.5–7.0 and is added during the cooling stage, making it suitable for industrial manufacturing and contract production.
Properties and functional role
SpecPed SC-MH17 acts as a peptide functional ingredient that supports uniform distribution and maintains system integrity. It contributes to formulation structure and compatibility.
It is compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients including conditioning agents and humectants.
Properties and result
