Cocamidopropylamine Oxide (CAO)
CAS No.: 68155-09-9, EINECS No.: 246-868-6
INCI Name: Cocamidopropylamine Oxide
Molecular formula: RCONH(CH2)3N(CH3)2O, R=cocoyl.
Cocamidopropylamine Oxide (CAO) is a 30% active Cocamidopropy lamine Oxide which is stable over a extensive pH range. It is amphoteric surfactant, which shows cationic properties under acidic condition, while shows nonionic properties under alkaline condition.
Cocamidopropylamine Oxide (CAO) has very good performances of thickening, antistatic, soften, foam booster, foam stabilizing, detergency etc.
It has low irritation, and can help decreasing irritation of other surfactants, can increase the synthesis detergency performance. Under general dosage, it is mild to skin and hair, also have good characteristics of killing germ, calcium-soap dispersing, biodegradable etc.
Characteristics:
Perfect foam booster and stabilizer.
Excellent thickener, unaffected by acid and hard water.
Compatible with anionic, cationic, amphoteric and non-ionic surfactants to improve the combination property.
Excellent conditioning and antistatic performance.

Application:
Cocamidopropylamine Oxide (CAO) is widely used in shampoo, shower gels, baby products, facial cleaners, dish washing detergents and hard surface cleaners as viscosity builder and foam booster. Also used in personal care products.
Cocamidopropylamine Oxide (CAO) can make the skin silky comfortable, and make the shampoo create thick creamy like foams, it make the hair softer, easy combing, and the foam is fine and luster, popular for dishwashing, toilet washing, outside wall of construction etc hard surface, play important function of thickening, decreasing irritation, increasing effect etc.
Compared with traditional 6501 (Coconut Diethanolamide), Cocamidopropylamine Oxide (CAO) has better characteristics like saving dosage, higher efficiency, stronger wetting capability, stronger detergency, and it has more comfortable feeling and softening performance.
The recommended dosage is 0.5-20%.
Packing in plastic drums, net weight 50kg or 200 kg.
Store in dry and cool place, keep away from sunshine and rain.
