Incorporação do concentrado proteico do resíduo da batata na formulação de máscaras capilares

Abstract

Hair strands are constantly being exposed to damage caused by sun exposure, sea water pollution, and swimming pools. Thus, the importance of cosmetics that have actives that can bring malleability and recondition the hair arises. Potato peel is an industry residue that can be reused, and it is estimated that about 300 tons are discarded per year in Brazil. The present work aims at extracting, drying in two temperature conditions, and incorporating the protein concentrate from potato processing waste in hair mask formulations. The formulations were exposed to realtime and accelerated stability tests under different temperature conditions. pH and organoleptic analyses were performed at the beginning and at the end of each stability test, and the final result was that the most stable interaction was the Symrise formulation with the incorporation of the protein concentrate dried at 30ºC.
