As an amphoteric surfactant, Sodium Cocoamphoacetate can shows function of cationic or anionic surfactant. If it's acidic condition, it behaves as a cationic surfactant, which will be substantive to our hair and skin, offering moisturizing and conditioning properties. If it's alkaline, it behaves as an anionic surfactant with good foaming and detergency properties.
Sodium Cocoamphoacetate is deemed as less irritative than Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), so it is a good choice in those formula which want SLS-free.
Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, organic compound, has no alkyl sulfate, betaine, ethylene oxide or preservatives.
Sodium Cocoamphoacetate is applicable in wide pH value ranges.
Sodium Cocoamphoacetate is made from fatty acid, it is a kind of mild amphoteric surfactant, cleansing agent.
Application
Sodium coco amphoacetate has good miscibility with kinds of surfactant and good compatibility with the soap; low irritant, especially mild to the skin and eyes, can significantly reduce the irritation by matching with anionic surfactant; outstanding foaming, which is so rich , fine, and Comfortable exquisite feeling that can significantly improve the state of the foam of the formula; owning function of conditioning in shampoo instead of betaine; the products with good salt tolerance and good security are stable and easily biodegradable in a broad range of PH value; It is recommended for the manufactures of face cream, cleansing gel, children detergent, especially for low-moderate, non-stimulated, tearless formula.
Sodium cocoamphoacetate can be used in the entire range of personal care products, it make your entire body feel clean and refreshed. It is widely be used in personal care industry, such as children detergent, shampoo, soap bar, facial cleanser, cleansing gel, hand soap, baby wash, eye makeup remover etc.
