Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) is a mixture of closely related organic compounds derived from coconut oil and dimethylaminopropylamine. Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) is a pale yellow chemical compound that is used as a secondary surfactant in most personal care and household cleaning products. The product is easily soluble in water with a pH range of 5-6 in a 10% aqueous solution. CAPB is generally considered skin-friendly and environment friendly and as it is derived from coconuts, it's considered a natural and safe surfactant. This is the reason why Cocamidopropyl betaine manufacturers supply the product in various natural origin cosmetic formulations as well.
