and Application
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
is a mild, anioinic, amino acid-based surfactant. Acts as a hydrophilic co-emulsifier in O/W emulsions.
Exhibits good skin compatibility, moderate resistance to hard water and very low potential of VOC.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
is a cold processable grade and based on natural raw materials.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate imparts a very pleasant feel on the skin, has vegetal origin, excellent biodegradability and is free of preservatives.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate has very good foaming behaviour and improves the dermatological characteristics of surfactant formulations.
Provides no irritation, no tears and no damage to skin lipids.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate significantly reduces water & energy consumption at the end consumer level due to easy rinse-off.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate shows marked surface and interfacial activity.
Used for ultra-mild formulations, shampoos, shower gels, liquid soaps and cleansing lotions.
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate is also used for hair-, bath- and baby care products..
