Regeneration of Persistent 18-MEA layer
on Damaged Hair Surface
HIROTO TANAMACHI1, SHIGETO INOUE2
?1 BeautyResearch Center, Kao Corporation, 2-1-3, Bunka, Sumida-ku, Tokyo 131-8501, Japan ?
2 Analytical Science Research Laboratories, Kao Corporation, 1334 Minato, Wakayama-shi, Wakayama,
640-0112, Japan?
Abstract: A technology for the regeneration of a persistent hydrophobicity to damaged hair surfaces using
18-MEA (18-Methyleicosanoic acid) is presented. Two approaches were examined in order to make
18-MEA bind tightly to damaged hair surface. One was to apply 18-MEA as an acid form and the other was
to apply 18-MEA as a salt or complex. It was found that the combination of 18-MEA with a specific
cationic surfactant (Stearoxypropyldimethylamine: SPDA) makes damaged hair surface hydrophobic, and
maintains its hydrophobicity even after shampooing. Characterization of adsorbed layers of 18-MEA/SPDA
on mica surface, as a hydrophilic surface model, was performed using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)
and Angle-resolved X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (AR-XPS). The results revealed that 18-MEA/SPDA
formed a layer with high wear resistance, with an alkyl chain, the hydrophobic moiety, oriented at an angle
of around 25°to the air interface.
INTRODUCTION
18-MEA is thought to be covalently bound, probably via a thioester or ester linkage, to the outer surface of
the cuticle (1-4) and locates specifically in the cuticle, not cortex (3). It is also known that 18-MEA
makes the surface hydrophobic and acts as a boundary lubricant to decrease friction resistance (5-8).
Since 18-MEA is covalently bound to the cuticle surface via thioester linkage, it can be easily removed
under alkaline conditions, such as hair coloring or permanent waving, and the surface becomes hydrophilic
and friction increases (9, 10). The absence of 18-MEA is considered as one of the reasons for an increase
in friction on the surface of the cuticle and it may have an influence on the sensory perception of hair, such
as dried out feeling and being hard to finger/comb through (7).
Although it is expected that a damaged hair surface should be repaired if 18-MEA layer could be repaired,
restoration of 18-MEA on damaged hair surface has not been reported so far. The objective of this study
is to develop a regeneration method of 18-MEA on a damaged hair surface and provide persistent
hydrophobicity and low friction to the damaged hair surface. It is well known that it is impossible to
regenerate covalently bound 18-MEA to the damaged hair surface. Therefore, two approaches were

examined in this study in order to make 18-MEA bind tightly to the damaged hair surface. One was to
apply 18-MEA as an acid form and the other was to apply 18-MEA as a salt or complex.
EXPERIMENTAL
MATERIALS
Hair samples
Hair fibers were kindly provided by a Japanese female aged 30. The fibers were cut at a distance of
approximately 20 cm from the root end on the back of her head. The hair had never been treated with any
chemical agents, such as bleaching, coloring or permanent waving.
Preparation of alkaline-colored hair
The hair was exposed to alkaline-coloring treatment 4 times with model weathering 360 times, where 90
times model weathering were done between every interval of alkaline-coloring, resulting in a total of
alkaline-coloring combined with daily weathering for 1 year, if the hair is alkaline-colored every 3 months.
The model weathering consists of a series of hair care procedures in daily life; shampooing, conditioning,
drying with a hot drier and brushing. Plain shampoo (10wt% of sodium polyoxyethylene lauryl ether
sulfate solution adjusted to pH7 with phosphoric acid), plain conditioner (formulation No.4 listed in Table
1) and alkaline-color solution, including 3.5% H2O2 at pH 9.0, were used for the preparation of
alkaline-colored hair.
Procedure of shampoo and conditioner treatment
Shampoo (0.5ml) was applied to the wet hair tress (5g) and was massaged by hand for 30 seconds. The
hair tress was then rinsed for 30seconds under running water. Conditioner (0.5ml) was applied to the wet
hair tress and distributed manually for 30 seconds, then left on for 1 minute. The hair tress was rinsed for
30seconds under running water. The hair tress was towel dried and dried using a hot dryer.
Chemicals
18-MEA and Stearoxypropyldimethylamine (SPDA) were obtained by chemical synthesis. Other
chemicals were commercially available.
METHODS
Measurement of surface properties of hair
Dynamic contact angles of hair were measured by the Wilhelmy method using a K100MK2 (Kruss). The
measurements were done at 20 ? C , 65% relative humidity (RH).
Friction forces on the cuticle surface of hair were measured using KEF-SE (KATO TECH. CO., LTD).
The test was conducted at a temperature of 20 ? C and relative humidity of 65%.

Quantitative analysis of 18-MEA
The amount of 18-MEA adsorbed to the hair fiber was measured using Liquid Chromatography / Mass
Spectrometry (LC-MS, Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA).
Atomic Force Microscopy
AFM images of adsorbed layer on mica surface were obtained using a Nanoscope IIIa Multi Mode AFM
(Veeco Instruments, Santa Barbara, CA) with E-Scanner. Tapping mode imaging was used to obtain the
topography images of adsorbed membrane layer. Mechanical property of adsorbed membrane was
analyzed by AFM scratching method.
Angle Resolved X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (ARXPS)
ARXPS is a nondestructive method to obtain elemental and chemical-state information as a function of
depth. ARXPS data was obtained using a Quantera SXM spectrometer (ULVAC PHI, Tokyo) with a
monochromatized Al K alpha X-ray source at 15 kV and 25 W.
RESULTS
Application of 18-MEA as an acid form
Contact angles of alkaline-colored hair treated with 18-MEA as acid type are shown in Figure 1. When
the alkaline-colored hair was treated with 1wt% of 18-MEA in chloroform, the contact angle became 90 º,
corresponding to that of normal hair (Figure 1(c)). That means the surface of the alkaline-colored hair
recovers hydrophobicity just after 18-MEA application. The contact angle decreased after shampooing
(Figure 1(d)), however, meaning the surface reverts to being hydrophilic. This is because 18-MEA as an
acid form doesn't have shampoo resistance with this procedure.

Application of 18-MEA as a complex
The objective for this study is to regenerate 18-MEA on alkaline-colored hair and provide persistent
hydrophobicity and low friction on alkaline-colored hair surface. In this section, contact angles after
shampooing were measured in order to make sure that damaged surface maintains its hydrophobicity even
after shampooing. Contact angles of alkaline-colored hair treated with 18-MEA and long-chain tertiary
amine or quaternary cationic surfactant complex in conditioner, after shampooing are shown in Figure 2.
Chemical structures of these surfactants are shown in Figure 3 and the conditioner formulations are listed in
Table 1. When alkaline-colored hair was treated with 18-MEA/SPDA complex (conditioner 1), the
contact angle became nearly 90 º, corresponding to that of normal hair. To further investigate, analysis of
variance (ANOVA) was conducted. It demonstrated that there were significant differences in the contact
angle between the hair treated with 18-MEA/SPDA complex (conditioner 1) and alkaline-colored hair, and
there were not significant differences in the contact angle between the hair treated with 18-MEA/SPDA
complex (conditioner 1) and normal hair. That means the surface of alkaline-colored hair treated with
18-MEA/SPDA complex (conditioner 1) could maintain its hydrophobicity even after shampooing, while
the hair treated with other complexes could not.

The dynamic friction coefficient of alkaline-colored hair treated with 18-MEA/SPDA was the nearest to
that of normal hair, and it was much lower than that of hair treated with other complexes. The results of
ANOVA showed that there was a significant difference in the dynamic friction coefficient between the hair
treated with 18-MEA/SPDA complex (conditioner 1) and alkaline-colored hair, and there were no
significant differences in the dynamic friction coefficient between the hair treated with 18-MEA/SPDA
complex (conditioner 1) and normal hair. That means the surface of alkaline-colored hair treated with
18-MEA/SPDA complex (conditioner 1) could maintain its low friction even after shampooing, while the
hair treated with other complexes could not.
Figure 4 shows the amount of sorption of 18-MEA of alkaline-colored hair treated with 18-MEA/SPDA,
18-MEA/DAPS and 18-MEA/STAC complex measured by LC-MS. As we expect from the results of the
contact angle and surface friction, the amount of 18-MEA absorbed on the surface of alkaline-colored hair
treated with 18-MEA/SPDA complex was much higher than that of hair treated with other complexes.
