The present paper studies the wetting behavior and shrink-resistance of keratin fibers prepared by solvent extraction or by industrial-like surfactant washing as well as their response to plasma treatments. The results obtained reveal that keratin fibers can be prepared by surfactant washing instead of using solvents, which will allow carrying out research studies in closer conditions to the industrial reality, and indeed in a much economic and environmentally friendly way.

“…The majority of research presented in the literature concentrate on interaction of a single hair fibre (dry or wet) with various liquids [2,[4][5]; however, wetting of dry hair tresses with polymer solutions is largely unexplored up to now. This attracts significant interest from the industry, particularly for treatments which are applied on dry hair, e.g., for hair colouring products, hair styling products, leave-on conditioners and serums.…”

The structure of hair was replicated via a solgel process using human hair as a template. When using silicate and tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) as the precursor, the cell structure of the hair cuticle was not well replicated. When using Ti(OnBu) 4 as the precursor, however, titania microtubes were obtained, with nanopores in their walls and nanoporous platelets on their outer surfaces, which were derived from cuticle cells on the hair surfaces. The nanopores in the microtubes acted as an effective nanoreactor for in situ synthesis of Au nanoparticles. The microchannels, nanopores and noble metal nanoparticles may provide a unique combination that would be attractive in applications such as catalysis, adsorption, and separation.
