Cocamidopropyl Betaine/CAPB-35/CAPB-45 Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB) is a sticky, yellow liquid with a slightly "fatty" odor. It is derived from raw coconut oil, which is combined with dimethylaminopropylamine to create a surfactant. Surfactants break the surface tension in water, loosen dirt, and rinse it away. CAPB, also known as coco amido propyl betaine, is known for creating thick, luxurious-feeling formulas and lathering well in cold water. It is often used in "no tear formulas" due to its gentler nature compared to sulfates. CAPB is a popular ingredient in personal care products due to its affordable price, effective cleaning capabilities, and coconut-derived origin. It has become a favored alternative to sulfates, which can cause irritation and dryness. Specification No. TEST ITEM STANDARD RESULT 1. ACTIVE MATTER 28.0-30.0 29.7 2.
