Amphoteric surfactants
Categories of Ingredients
Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Mild co-surfactant for foaming products. Foam enhancer and thickener in combination with a surfactant and sodium chloride. On a dry matter basis, less effective than BetadetHR.
Lauryl Hydroxysultaine
Very mild co-surfactant for foaming products. Thickener, enhances foaming ability even in hard water.
Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine
Very mild co-surfactant for foaming products. Thickener, enhances foaming ability even in hard water and in the presence of oil
Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Mild co-surfactant for foaming products. Foam enhancer and thickener in combination with antisurfactant and sodium chloride.
Lauramine Oxide
It is non-ionic/cationic in nature (depending on pH). Used in dishwashing and industrial cleaning products. It is used as a solubilizer for fragrances and as a thickener for bleaches based on sodium hypochlorite. Increases foaming.
Myristamine Oxide
It is non-ionic/cationic in nature (depending on pH). It is used as a co-surfactant that enhances foaming and washing power. As the pH decreases, its thickening properties increase. Can be used as a thickener in bleaches based on sodium hypochlorite.
Alkyl Dimethyl Amine Oxide
It is non-ionic/cationic in nature (depending on pH). Used in dishwashing and industrial cleaning products. It is used as a solubilizer for fragrances and as a thickener for bleaches based on sodium hypochlorite. Increases foaming.
Cocamidopropylamine Oxide
It is non-ionic/cationic in nature (depending on pH). It is used as a co-surfactant that enhances foaming and washing power. As the pH decreases, its thickening properties increase.
