Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB)-CAS 61789-40-0

Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB), chemically named Cocamidopropyl Dimethyl Betaine, is a high-performance mild amphoteric surfactant.

Its INCI name is Cocamidopropyl Betaine, with dual CAS No. 61789-40-0 & 86438-79-1 and EINECS No. 262-070-9.

The molecular formula is C₁₉H₃₈N₂O₃ with an average molecular weight of 342.52 g/mol.

Derived from natural coconut oil raw materials through amidation and quaternization reaction, our cosmetic-grade Cocamidopropyl Betaine adopts high-purity refining technology with effective active content of 30%/35% (customizable).

The product appears as colorless to pale yellow transparent viscous liquid.

It features outstanding acid and alkali resistance, hard water resistance, low irritation and high foam stability, with 10% aqueous solution pH value stably ranging from 5.0 to 7.0.

It has excellent compounding synergistic performance, can significantly reduce the irritation of anionic surfactants and improve formula mildness.

The minimum order quantity is 1KG.

It is widely used in mild cleansing products, shampoo, body wash, baby care products and daily chemical emulsification and thickening systems.

Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB)-CAS 61789-40-0

Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB) is a classic coconut-derived amphoteric surfactant widely used in global mild personal care formulas. It combines the advantages of anionic and cationic surfactants, featuring excellent foaming, cleansing, thickening and skin conditioning performance. Different from traditional high-irritation surfactants, it has ultra-mild skin and scalp affinity, effectively reduces formula irritation, and brings soft and non-tight after-use feeling. It can stably compound with various anionic, cationic and non-ionic surfactants to optimize foam fineness and improve product mildness and stability. With excellent hard water resistance and low-temperature formula stability, it is a core green raw material for high-end mild cleansing, baby care and sensitive skin daily chemical products.
