MG-60
– Hair Repair and Luster Improvement : Concept Sheet

February 10, 2026

This starch-derived functional oligosaccharide is composed mainly of maltooligosyl glucoside and is designed to support hair repair and sensory improvement in hair care formulations. MG-60 helps address damage caused by chemical and physical factors such as bleaching and brushing.

Application tests demonstrated several key effects:
・Improved luster of damaged hair, showing greater efficacy compared to arginine treatment
・Repair of lifted cuticle edges 
・Reduced hair washing damage, achieving low-friction performance comparable to silicone shampoo-even in silicone-free formulations

These results indicate that MG-60 helps protect and repair the outer surface of hair, contributing to smoother, shinier, and more beautiful hair. MG-60 is suitable for hair care formulations aiming to improve the appearance and feel of damaged hair while meeting sustainability requirements.
