Cocamidopropyl Betaine CAPB 30 Factory and Suppliers in China
Description
Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB/CAB) 30% is a high-performance zwitterionic surfactant renowned for its exceptional stability across a broad spectrum of acidic and alkaline conditions. By integrating both cationic and anionic properties, it offers seamless compatibility with anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactants, making it an indispensable ingredient for high-quality chemical formulations.
Engineered for excellence in personal care and industrial cleaning, this versatile agent provides superior detergency, rich foaming capacity, and outstanding thickening effects. Its low irritation profile ensures it is safe for sensitive skin, while its antistatic and hard water resistance properties significantly enhance the softness and low-temperature stability of washing and conditioning products.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the primary applications of Cocamidopropyl Betaine?
It is widely used in personal care products such as shampoos, bubble baths, facial cleansers, and baby protecting agents due to its gentle nature and foaming properties.
Q: Why is CAPB considered a "zwitterionic" surfactant?
It possesses both positive (cationic) and negative (anionic) charges in the same molecule, allowing it to be compatible with almost all other types of surfactants.
Q: Does CAPB 30% help in thickening liquid formulations?
Yes, when matched with other active matter, it provides obvious thickening effects, making it easier to achieve the desired viscosity in shampoos and gels.
Q: Is this product suitable for baby care products?
Absolutely. Its low irritation to the skin and eyes makes it a preferred modifier for baby shampoos and gentle cleansers.
Q: How does it perform in hard water conditions?
CAPB exhibits excellent hard water resistance, ensuring that the cleaning and foaming power remains effective even in areas with mineral-rich water.
Q: What is the typical lead time for custom CAPB orders?
While general products take 7-10 days for samples, customized specifications typically require 30-40 days depending on the production schedule.
