Crodabond CSN (hydrogenated castor oil/sebacic acid copolymer) has gained industry recognition for its ability to seal split ends, enhance smoothness and improve shine. Recent studies reveal that using only 1% Crodabond CSN achieves an ideal balance between effective hair repair and a natural sensory feel, making it a standout choice for hair care formulations.
Key benefits of Crodabond CSN reportedly include:
- Effective Split-End Repair: Proven to seal split ends, even after multiple washes.

Croda’s Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) studies confirmed the ingredient’s superior wash-out resistance compared to synthetic competitors, cementing its position as a natural and effective alternative for hair care brands.
