Description

Isostearamidopropylamine Oxide is a high-purity, non-ionic/cationic surfactant derived from isostearic acid. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, conditioning, and emulsifying properties, along with its mildness and compatibility with other ingredients. It is essential for formulators in the personal care and cosmetic industries seeking to enhance product performance and sensory profiles.

Application

• Hair Care Formulations: Acts as a primary or secondary surfactant and conditioner in shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks, providing rich foam and softness.
• Skin Cleansers & Body Washes: Used in facial cleansers, shower gels, and syndet bars for its gentle cleansing and stable lather.
• Baby Care Products: An ideal ingredient in mild baby shampoos and washes due to its low irritation potential.
• Color Cosmetics: Serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer in makeup removers and certain cream-based products.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Employed in formulations requiring high-foaming, low-residue surfactants for hard surface cleaners.
• Pet Shampoos: Provides effective yet mild cleaning for animal grooming products.
