Bionic phospholipid PTM phospholipid surfactant Plant sources
Product Description:
Bionic phospholipid PTM is a mild and multifunctional phospholipid complex extracted from plants. PTM has a skin sensation regulating effect, providing excellent conditioning performance and giving good skin sensation to skincare formulas and personal washing products; Extremely gentle on the skin and eyes, it can be used in infant and toddler care products or formulas for sensitive skin. PTM has a certain anti dandruff effect in shampoo products and has good moisture and dryness when used in rinse type personal cleaning products; Meanwhile, PTM can also enhance the anti-corrosion system and antibacterial effect, ensuring good antibacterial performance of the system while reducing the amount of preservatives used.
INCI name: Myristamidopropyl Pg-dimonium Chloride Phosphate

Product performance:
1. Enhance the efficacy of dandruff suppressants
Biomimetic phospholipid PTM can enhance the efficacy of the anti dandruff agent pyroxene ethanolamine (OCT) in shampoo. OCT has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal effects. To demonstrate the performance of PTM in improving OCT efficacy, antibacterial rings were used in commercially available shampoo without dandruff reducing agents.
In Figure 1, according to the results of the antibacterial ring, compared with the shampoo with only 0.02% OCT added, 0.8% PTM can effectively improve the efficacy of OCT in shampoo and inhibit the growth of Malassezia furfur.
| Sample name | Diameter of antibacterial ring(mm) | Initial diameter(mm) | test result |
| 0.02%OCT | 6.67 | 6.08 | Antibacterial ring ＜ 7mm, no antibacterial activity |
| 0.8%PTM+0.02OCT | 26.08 | 6.09 | Antibacterial ring ＞ 7mm, have antibacterial activity |
1. Reduce the amount of preservatives used in rinse off products
The potential health concerns about commonly used preservatives, such as nipagin esters, are increasingly being promoted. So lower efficiency preservatives, such as phenoxyethanol, are increasingly being used. The inhibition test area proves that 1% PTM can improve the anti-corrosion efficiency of phenoxyethanol in mild cleaning products (picture 2).
0.8% phenoxyethanol 0.8% phenoxyethanol+1%PTM
Picture 2: In mild cleaning products containing phenoxyethanol, there are 1% PTM and no
PTM inhibition test area. A low score indicates good antibacterial ability
