Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate is a high-purity amphoteric surfactant derived from coconut oil, offering exceptional mildness and superior foam stabilization properties. It is widely utilized in Cosmetic Grade formulations to reduce the irritation potential of anionic surfactants while maintaining cleaning efficiency.
The product exhibits excellent pH stability and compatibility with various surfactant classes, including anionic, nonionic, and cationic systems. Its Technical Grade variants are favored in industrial applications for their biodegradable profile and effective electrolyte tolerance in hard water.
As a secondary surfactant, it provides a silky skin feel and enhances the viscosity of liquid detergent and personal care systems. It is characterized by its low toxicity profile, making it the preferred choice for baby care and sensitive skin applications.
APPLICATIONS
- Personal Care Formulations: Used as a primary or secondary surfactant in tear-free baby shampoos, facial cleansers, and body washes due to its ultra-mild nature.
- Industrial Cleaning: Acts as a high-foaming agent in industrial alkaline cleaners and vehicle wash products where biodegradability and hard water stability are required.
- Textile Processing: Utilized as a wetting agent and lubricant in leather and textile treatment to ensure uniform chemical penetration without fiber damage.
SAFETY & RISKS
Classified as a non-irritant to skin at standard concentrations, but may cause Serious Eye Irritation (Category 2) in undiluted forms. Handle using Protective Gloves and Safety Goggles to prevent contact; ensure adequate ventilation in production areas.
PACKAGING
Standard delivery in 200 kg Plastic Drums, 1000 kg IBC Tanks, or bulk ISO containers for large-scale manufacturing.
