LIPIDURE® Series – Biomimetic Polymers Inspired by Cell Membranes

Collection description

About the LIPIDURE® Series

LIPIDURE® is a series of biocompatible polymers originally developed as surface‑preparation materials for artificial organs.
The core technology is based on the phosphorylcholine (PC) group, a polar head group found in biological cell membranes, which provides exceptional compatibility with living tissues.
Leveraging this medical‑origin technology, the LIPIDURE® Series has been adapted for cosmetic applications, where it functions as a protective and skin‑conditioning polymer with a proven safety profile.

Core Technology – Phosphorylcholine‑Based Biocompatibility

Phosphorylcholine is a naturally occurring functional group that constitutes a key component of cell membranes.
By incorporating this structure into synthetic polymers, LIPIDURE® materials exhibit high affinity to biological surfaces while maintaining low irritation potential.
This technology enables LIPIDURE® polymers to interact gently with skin and hair surfaces, supporting moisture retention, surface protection, and formulation stability across cosmetic applications.
