Coco Betaine – CAPB – 120g – Cocamidopropyl Betaine – Mild Foaming Surfactant

Description:

Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB) is a mild, amphoteric surfactant derived from coconut oil. It is widely used in cleansing formulations to improve foam quality, reduce irritation from primary surfactants, and enhance overall product mildness.

CAPB is especially valued in sulfate-based and sulfate-free systems for its ability to create rich, stable lather while keeping formulations gentle on skin and scalp. It is suitable for both adult and mild-care formulations.
