CAPB (Cocamidopropyl Betaine) is a mild amphoteric (zwitterionic) surfactant derived from coconut fatty acids. It is primarily used as a secondary surfactant to enhance the mildness, foam quality, and stability of formulations.
Foam Booster & Stabilizer: Improves foam quality and helps maintain foam stability.
Mild Cleansing Agent: Gently cleanses without irritation.
Viscosity Enhancer: Responsive to salt, helping to thicken formulations.
Reduces Irritation: Mitigates skin and eye irritation caused by anionic surfactants.
Enhances Wetting & Detergency: Improves product performance in cleaning.
Conditioning Effect: Provides a smoother feel to skin and hair.
Widely valued for its mildness, CAPB is commonly found in:
Shampoos
Hair Conditioners
Body Washes
Face Wash & Cleansers
Liquid Hand Washes
Baby Shampoos & Washes
Shaving Creams & Gels
Intimate Hygiene Products

Functions in agricultural formulations, serving as:
An emulsifier for pesticide solutions
A wetting and dispersing agent
CAPB is highly compatible with various surfactants:
Anionic Surfactants (e.g., SLES, LABSA)
Non-Ionic Surfactants (e.g., APEO-free ethoxylates, alcohol ethoxylates)
Cationic Surfactants (e.g., quaternary compounds, conditioners)
