Description

Arginine Hexyldecyl Phosphate is a high-purity, amphoteric surfactant derived from the amino acid L-Arginine and a branched alkyl phosphate. This compound is valued for its exceptional mildness and skin compatibility, making it a superior alternative to traditional anionic surfactants. It is primarily sought after by formulators in the personal care and cosmetic industries for creating premium, gentle cleansing products. Its unique structure provides effective foaming and cleansing while maintaining the skin's natural moisture barrier.

Application

• Premium Facial Cleansers & Makeup Removers: Ideal for sensitive skin formulations due to its non-irritating and mild cleansing properties.
• Baby Care Products: Used in shampoos, body washes, and soaps where gentleness is paramount.
• High-End Shampoos & Conditioners: Provides rich, stable lather and improves hair manageability without stripping natural oils.
• Micellar Waters & Cleansing Waters: Acts as a key surfactant for effectively removing impurities and makeup with a non-sticky afterfeel.
• Shaving Creams & Gels: Delivers a smooth, lubricating lather that protects the skin during shaving.
• Body Washes & Shower Gels: Enhances the mildness and skin-feel of daily cleansing products.
• Pharmaceutical & Dermocosmetic Preparations: Suitable for medicated cleansers and products for compromised or atopic skin.
