      research Moisture sorption/desorption of protein fibres

      25 citations , November 2012 in “Thermochimica Acta”
      This study found that lipid extraction increased water diffusion in wool and hair fibers; the effect was more pronounced in hair, indicating lipids are crucial for water permeability.
      Learning From Hair Moisture Sorption And Hysteresis

      research Learning from hair moisture sorption and hysteresis

      4 citations , July 2022 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science”
      This study found that the moisture sorption and desorption process can differentiate between cosmetic treatments of hair and provide insights into hair fibre structure changes, with bleaching causing greater symmetry breaking than perming.

      research The kinetics of moisture sorption by hair

      November 2024 in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science”
      This research investigated how moisture absorption impacts human hair structure, finding that moisture sorption kinetics reveal insights into chain entanglement and structural changes due to cosmetic treatments, while also quantifying the influence of sample weight and fiber density on the sorption process.
      Exogenous and Endogenous Lipids of Human Hair

      research Exogenous and endogenous lipids of human hair

      21 citations , March 2017 in “Skin research and technology”
      In this study, extracting internal lipids from Caucasian hair fibers led to decreased water permeability, influenced by the fluidity of lipids.
