- INCI Name: Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
- Chemical Name: l-Glutamicacid,N-cocoacylderivs.,monosodiumsalts
- CAS No: 68187-32-6
Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate is a mild, sulfate free surfactant on a natural amino acid and coconut oil. It is a vegetable-based surfactant that is light on the skin and hair and does not weigh them down. Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate also serves as an emulsifier – helping the ingredients to combine well and form a smooth texture.
- Exhibits good skin compatibility, moderate resistance to hard water and very low potential of VOC.
- Used to help soften (remove excess minerals from) hard water, allowing cleansers to work to their full potential.
- Imparts a very pleasant feel on the skin, has vegetal origin, excellent biodegradability and is free of preservatives.
- Has very good foaming behaviour and improves the dermatological characteristics of surfactant formulations.
- Provides no irritation, no tears and no damage to skin lipids.
- Significantly reduces water & energy consumption at the end consumer level due to easy rinse-off.
- Shows marked surface and interfacial activity.
Usage levels of sodium cocoyl glutamate in skin care range from 2–30% based on formulary needs and whether it’s the primary or secondary surfactant. These levels are considered safe as used in rinse-off products.
