DISODIUM LAUROAMPHODIACETATE LAUROYL SARCOSINATE.

Insufficient Data / FOAMING, HAIR CONDITIONING, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - EMULSIFYING, SURFACTANT - FOAM BOOSTING

This ingredient functions as a versatile surfactant, primarily utilized in a variety of cleansing formulations. Its primary role is to effectively remove oils and other impurities from the skin and hair by encapsulating them within micelles, allowing for effortless rinsing.

Summary

Surfactant Cleansing Agent

Science

Mechanism of Action

DISODIUM LAUROAMPHODIACETATE LAUROYL SARCOSINATE operates as a surfactant, actively reducing surface tension. This action facilitates the emulsification and dispersion of oils, dirt, and other environmental soils into discrete micellar structures. These micelles effectively trap the impurities, enabling them to be easily rinsed away from the skin or hair surface with water.

Stability

The ingredient demonstrates stability across a broad pH range of 2 to 10. For optimal stability in shampoo compositions, a pH range of 4 to 8 is preferred, with peak stability observed between pH 5 and 7. Formulators must carefully manage inorganic salt levels, keeping them below approximately 1% total NaCl to prevent the formation of undesired coacervates (gel-like precipitates), which can lead to product cloudiness, two-phase separation, and overall instability, particularly in formulations containing cationic polymers.

Conflicts

  • High inorganic salt concentrations (exceeding 1% total NaCl) can lead to coacervate formation and product instability, especially when combined with cationic polymers.

Verdict

Insufficient Data

While effective as a cleansing surfactant, a comprehensive assessment of DISODIUM LAUROAMPHODIACETATE LAUROYL SARCOSINATE's safety profile and skin compatibility is limited by the absence of CIR review and specific clinical data.
