Nanotechnology Scalp Care

Hosokawa Powder Technology Research Institute, a member of the Hosokawa Micron Group, is currently in the process of developing new scalp care using nanotechnology.

Skin penetration is achieved using particles with a mean nanosphere diameter of 200nm. The nanopowder contains ingredients essential for scalp care and are delivered deep into the dermis.

One application of PLGA (polylactic-co-glycolic acid) powder contains 1.8 trillion nanoparticles. The powder penetrates deep down to the hair papilla.

The scalp care cosmetic contains a mixture of 21 different natural oils that act to moisturize the scalp to control dandruff and itching. In addition, this cosmetic contains very little alcohol, and since it does not contain paraben, it is extremely gentle on the scalp. Hosokawa Micron is in the process of developing nanotechnology scalp care for both men and women.
