What is Cocamidopropyl Betaine？

Cocamidopropyl Betaine is a zwitterionic surfactant widely used in personal care products. Cocamidopropyl Betaine is commonly used in shampoo, shower gel, hand soap and other products. It can effectively clean the skin and hair while increasing the foam volume and stability of the product. In addition, it also has certain bactericidal and antibacterial effects, so it is also used as a preservative.

What is the source of Cocamidopropyl Betaine?

Cocamidopropyl Betaine is mainly derived from natural coconut oil. The rich fatty acid composition of coconut oil makes it an ideal raw material for the synthesis of this surfactant.
