Gentle Cleansing Power: Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate in Shampoos and Conditioners

Sodium cocoyl glutamate is a colorless to pale yellow liquid amino acid surfactant formed by the condensation of naturally occurring fatty acids and glutamic acid salts. It can be used as the main surfactant alone in formulations or as an auxiliary surfactant in combination with soap-based, AES, etc.

Sodium cocoyl glutamate

Sodium cocoyl glutamate has basic properties such as emulsification, washing, permeation, and dissolution of anionic surfactants. But most importantly, the characteristics of sodium cocoyl glutamate are low toxicity and mildness, as well as good affinity for human skin. It helps our body remove dirt from the surface of the skin to the greatest extent possible while maintaining the skin’s moisture and transparency, thus assisting our body in skin care.

The function of sodium cocoyl glutamate

Sodium cocoyl glutamate is made of highly safe materials and is extremely gentle on the skin, making it less likely to cause allergies. Suitable foam, strong washing power, excellent adaptability to hard water; Can be quickly decomposed by living organisms; Due to the presence of fatty acids, it can achieve the desired viscosity in solution and micelle form; Suitable for various forms of goods such as solid, liquid, paste, powder, etc.; It can reduce the adsorption of alcohol ether sulfates such as SLES on the skin while increasing the moisturizing performance of the skin.

Can effectively repair damaged hair; It has anti-static properties in acidic environments and shows a good effect on hair combing; Can be used in various cream systems to enhance emulsification and increase the moisturizing and skin sticking properties of products; The product has a natural coconut oil aroma. Meanwhile, sodium cocoylglutamate can significantly reduce the degreasing power of the soap base and improve the foam shape of the soap base and the tightness after washing.

The foam content of sodium cocoylglutamate is high

Application of Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate

Sodium cocoyl glutamate is mainly used in hair and body care products, such as shampoo, shower gel, liquid soap, facial cleansers, and mild baby care products. It is also suitable for home care products such as hand sanitizer, fruit and vegetable detergent, dishwashing detergent, etc.

Moisturizing: It can absorb water and lock in water. The molecular structure of amino acids contains a positive electrode and a negative electrode, which can capture a molecule of water between the positive and negative electrodes to form a thin film on the surface of the skin. On the one hand, it seals water inside the skin to prevent water evaporation, and on the other hand, it does not hinder the skin’s absorption of air moisture, thereby maintaining appropriate skin humidity.

Skin-friendly: As a surfactant, it has minimal irritation to the skin, excellent skin friendliness, and moderate cleansing power.

Acne removal: In terms of acne removal, sodium cocoyl glutamate mainly helps improve skin oiliness by moisturizing. In addition, sodium cocoyl glutamate can also repair skin potholes and damage, and deal with small acne scars, making it very easy.
