What is Sodium cocoamphoacetate Liquid CAS 68334-21-4？
Appearance: Usually white or light yellow powder. Solubility: soluble in water and miscible with organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone. Surface active properties: Sodium cocoamphoacetate is a nonionic surfactant that has good cleaning ability and emulsifying properties in aqueous solutions, and can reduce the surface tension of liquids. Stability: Sensitive to hard water and electrolytes, easily affected by calcium and magnesium ions in the water and reducing its cleaning ability.

FAQ
Q: What type of surfactant is this product? How does it work?
A: It is a zwitterionic imidazoline surfactant. The molecule has both positive and negative charges. It reduces surface tension and enables cleaning and foaming; it adsorbs onto the skin or hair surface, providing moisturizing, smoothing, and conditioning effects, and reducing the irritation of the formula.
Q: What is the recommended addition amount?
A: Baby bath care / facial cleanser: 5–15%; body wash, shampoo: 3–10%; dishwashing detergent: 2–8%; adjust according to the formula system.
Q: What is the recommended pH range?
A: Sodium cocoamphoacetate is recommended to use pH 5–10; strong acidity (pH < 4) may affect the product stability over a long period of time.
Q: Can it be combined with anionic surfactants such as SLES/AES?
A: Sodium cocoamphoacetate is highly suitable. After compounding, it can significantly reduce the irritation caused by SLES, while stabilizing the foam, and is a classic combination in the cosmetic formula.
Q: Will it freeze at low temperatures?
A: Sodium cocoamphoacetate may thicken at low temperatures. After warming to room temperature and stirring, it can return to its original state, and the performance will not be affected; it is recommended to store at a temperature above 5℃.
Q: Storage conditions and shelf life?
A: Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse, protected from freezing, avoiding high-temperature exposure and direct sunlight; the shelf life is 24 months.
Q: Regular packaging and MOQ?
A: Regular 170kg plastic drums, IBC ton drums; samples can be provided. MOQ: 170kg. COA, MSDS, TDS can be provided. For cosmetics grade, corresponding materials can be provided.
