DISODIUM TALLOWAMIDO MEA-SULFOSUCCINATE.

Valuable CAS 90268-41-0 / CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - CLEANSING, SURFACTANT - FOAM BOOSTING, SURFACTANT - HYDROTROPE

Disodium Tallowamido MEA-Sulfosuccinate is a gentle surfactant that functions to reduce surface tension, aiding in the emulsification and removal of impurities. It also enhances foam quality and improves the solubility of other ingredients in aqueous solutions.

Summary

cleansing foam boosting hydrotrope surfactant

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient operates primarily as a surfactant, effectively decreasing the surface tension of water. This action facilitates the emulsification of oils and dirt, allowing them to be easily rinsed from the skin or hair. Additionally, it serves as a foam booster, contributing to a richer and more stable lather, and as a hydrotrope, increasing the solubility of various substances within a formulation.
