Coconut betaine is a naturally occurring amphoteric surfactant (derived from coconut). Improves lather and has antistatic properties in hair care. It is often used in natural products with decyl glucoside (non-ionic surfactant) and coco glucoside (non-ionic surfactant). It is authorized in organic products

Properties and uses of coconut betaine:

• Antistatic: Reduces static electricity by neutralizing the electrical charge on a surface
• Cleaning agent: Helps maintain a clean surface
• Synergist moss: Improves the quality of the foam produced by increasing one or more of the following properties: volume, texture and / or stability
• Hair conditioner: Leaves hair easy to comb, flexible, soft and shiny and / or gives volume, lightness and shine
• Skin care agent: Keeps skin in good condition
• Surfactant: Reduces the surface tension of cosmetics and contributes to the uniform distribution of the product when used
• Viscosity Control Agent: Increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetics

Dosage: Topical route, usually 7-15% in combination with anionic surfactants.

Conservation: In well closed containers. PROTECT FROM LIGHT.
