DISODIUM STEARAMIDO MEA-SULFOSUCCINATE.

Insufficient Data CAS 85081-55-6 / CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - FOAM BOOSTING, SURFACTANT - HYDROTROPE

Disodium Stearamido MEA-Sulfosuccinate is an anionic surfactant primarily valued for its robust cleansing and foam-boosting capabilities in cosmetic formulations. It effectively reduces surface tension, enabling the emulsification and removal of impurities from the skin and hair. Its versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of rinse-off products.

Summary

cleansing foam boosting hydrotrope surfactant

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient functions by reducing the surface tension between different phases (e.g., oil and water), allowing them to mix more readily. As a surfactant, it effectively lifts and encapsulates oils and dirt, suspending them in water for easy rinsing. Additionally, it enhances the quantity and stability of foam, contributing to a more satisfying user experience in foaming cleansers.
