Tremella Polysaccharide
Tremella Polysaccharide
Tremella Polysaccharide is a new type of plant derived high efficiency humectant extracted from Tremella. It is a kind of water soluble polymer, the average molecular weight is over one million Da., and the molecular structure backbone is Mannan made up by alpha (1-3) - glycosidic bond composition, and the branched chain by glucuronic acid, xylose and fucose etc., the active part is common structural part of alpha (1-3) - mannan.
Applications in Cosmetics
1.Efficient Moisturizing: (water retention)
Tremella Polysaccharide can significantly enhance the hydratability of the skin cell, increase the moisture content of skin , can form a layer of moisturizing protective film to reduce the moisture loss on the surface of the skin, with dual effect of water retention and water holding.
2.Antioxidation and anti-aging
With the certain ability of scavenging superoxide radical and hydroxyl radical, it can prevent skin from aging by inhibiting peroxidation of the cytolipin, and promote skin regeneration by increasing the vitality of the skin cells. So Tremella Polysaccharide can help human to delay the skin aging and repaire damaged skin.
3.Improve the skin feeling
Tremella Polysaccharide is a kind of high molecular polymer, with good skin affinity and high viscosity. Lubricating effect is obvious after using the skin care products with Tremella Polysaccharide added in, and the skin is feels moist and smooth, with no dry and tight feeling.
4.Emulsification effect
Tremella Polysaccharide has a certain effect of emulsification. In the specific formula application, it can replace the partial emulsifier and reduce the actual use of emulsifier.
Advantage:
• Plant source.
• Natural, safe and effective.
• Moisture replenishment and retention.
• Good affinity to skin, and no sticky feeling.
• Scavenging free radicals and renovating damaged skin.
• The structure is not easy to be destroyed and biological activity is high.
