Description
Neutral protease NZs-BE-A014 is a high-performance, industrial-grade solid enzyme preparation with an activity of 60,000 U/g. It is presented as a light yellow to light brown powder, characterized by a mild fermentation aroma. The product exhibits no caking or signs of moisture absorption, which ensures consistent quality, stability, and reliability during storage, handling, and application. This enzyme is specifically formulated to perform efficiently under neutral as well as mildly acidic or alkaline conditions. It functions by catalyzing the hydrolysis of protein macromolecules into smaller peptides and amino acids. This targeted enzymatic action enables precise and controlled protein degradation under relatively mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, NZs-BE-A014 is easily integrated into various industrial systems, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of formulations and processing workflows requiring efficient and reliable protein hydrolysis. It is particularly well-suited for applications in leather processing and cosmetic formulations, where controlled protein modification is essential.

Applications
- Leather industry. Neutral protease NZs-BE-A014 is well-suited for a variety of leather processing stages, particularly in depilation, bating, and softening treatments for different types of hides and skins. It effectively hydrolyzes non-structural proteins, facilitating their removal. This action helps to loosen and open up the collagen fiber network, while also reducing residual impurities within the leather matrix. By promoting a cleaner and more uniform structure, the enzyme enhances the softness, fullness, elasticity, and overall hand feel of the finished leather.
- Cosmetics industry. In cosmetic and personal care formulations, neutral protease NZs-BE-A014 serves as a functional bioactive ingredient for the controlled degradation of keratin and other protein-based substances. It assists in gently breaking down aged or excess keratin on the skin surface, thereby supporting natural exfoliation and promoting healthy skin renewal. This enzymatic action helps improve skin texture, leaving it smoother, softer, and more refined. When properly incorporated into formulations, it can contribute to mild exfoliating effects without harsh mechanical action, making it suitable for products aimed at enhancing skin clarity and radiance. Its compatibility with various formulation systems also allows for flexible application in a range of skincare products designed to support skin metabolism and overall appearance.
Recommended Dosage
The suggested dosage of the product ranges from 0.1 to 5 kg per ton of raw material. However, the optimal dosage may vary depending on several factors, including the type and composition of the raw materials, specific formulation requirements, processing conditions (such as pH, temperature, and reaction time), as well as the final product characteristics. Therefore, it is advisable to conduct preliminary trials to determine the most effective dosage for each specific application.
Storage
Store the product in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment to maintain its stability and activity. It should be protected from direct sunlight, and sources of heat.
