Frequently asked questions
What is cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) and where is it used?

CAPB (CAS 61789-40-0) is an amphoteric surfactant derived from coconut oil fatty acids. It reduces the harshness of anionic surfactants and improves foam quality and viscosity; it is used as the primary co-surfactant in shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, liquid soap, bubble bath and baby or sensitive-skin cosmetics.

What packaging does CAPB come in, and is it ex-stock?

CAPB is supplied as a pale-yellow viscous liquid at 29-31% active matter in 220 kg plastic or steel drums, 1000 kg IBC tanks or bulk by tanker. It ships ex-stock from our Istanbul warehouse, so you avoid the lead times of importing from China.

Is CAPB KKDIK-registered and is an SDS provided?

Yes. Cocamidopropyl betaine is supplied KKDIK-registered, and a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is provided with every shipment. A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) and technical data sheet are available on request.
