CAPB 35% — Cocamidopropyl Betaine 35
Mild amphoteric co-surfactant that boosts foam, thickens formulations and reduces the harshness of anionic surfactants.
Export orders only — minimum quantities apply. We reply with pricing, lead time and shipping options.
Betaine is the secondary surfactant that turns a harsh cleaning base into a usable consumer product. Added to SLES or LABSA systems it increases foam quality, builds viscosity and noticeably reduces skin irritation.
Key points
- Amphoteric surfactant — compatible with anionic, cationic and non-ionic systems
- Improves foam volume and stability
- Acts as a natural thickener, reducing the need for salt
- Lowers skin irritation in hand soaps and shampoos
- Supplied in drums and IBC totes
Supply from Nova Plus
Nova Plus supplies betaine from Turkish manufacturers in the concentration your formulation requires. We can quote it alongside SLES and LABSA as a single consolidated shipment, which is how most of our detergent clients buy.
