COCAMIDOPROPYL BETAINE
Also known as: Mersurf CA 35%
CAS Number: 61789-40-0
Key Benefits
Mild amphoteric surfactant — gentle cleansing, foam booster
How It Works
Amphoteric surfactant derived from coconut oil. Zwitterionic at skin pH, making it extremely mild. Acts as foam booster and viscosity builder when combined with anionic surfactants. Significantly reduces irritation potential of primary cleansing surfactants.
Why BP Derma Uses It
Cocamidopropyl Betaine is essential in our cleansers for achieving the ideal foam richness while keeping the overall formula gentle enough for daily use. Its zwitterionic nature means it behaves gently at normal skin pH.
