Capryloyl hydrolyzed keratin (with capryloyl the fatty acid component caprylic acid, also called octanoic acid) has an antistatic effect in cosmetic products (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electric charge on the surface of skin and hair). The substance makes the hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume.
