What is Cocamidopropyl Betaine Powder CAS 61789-40-0?

Cocamidopropyl Betaine Powder CAS 61789-40-0 is a coconut-derived amphoteric surfactant supplied as a high-active solid. Its INCI name is Cocamidopropyl Betaine, and it is commonly used in concentrated solid cleansing and dry-blend formulations.

How does the powder form differ from liquid Cocamidopropyl Betaine?

The powder form is a spray-dried, high-active solid designed for water-free or low-water systems such as shampoo bars, syndet bars and powdered cleansers. Liquid grades are more commonly supplied at about 30-45% active matter, while the powder is concentrated for easier dosing and dry blending.

Is Cocamidopropyl Betaine compatible with anionic surfactants?

Yes. Cocamidopropyl Betaine is amphoteric and works well with anionic surfactants such as SLES and SLS. This combination improves foam quality, viscosity building and mildness while reducing irritation in personal-care and cleaning products.

What applications are suitable for Cocamidopropyl Betaine Powder CAS 61789-40-0?

It is suitable for solid shampoo bars, facial cleansers, body washes, baby-care products, hand soaps, foaming toilet blocks and high-end household or industrial cleaners. It is especially useful where a mild amphoteric surfactant is needed in a dry or concentrated system.

What key specifications should be checked before ordering?

Check active matter, appearance, pH, moisture, free amidoamine or amine value, sodium chloride and microbial limits. Confirm whether the material is intended for cosmetic, personal-care or industrial cleaning use and request the batch-specific analysis.

How should Cocamidopropyl Betaine Powder be stored and handled?

Store it in tightly closed, moisture-protected containers in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight and strong oxidizers. Use dust-control measures and suitable PPE during weighing, transfer and processing.

Product Description

Cocamidopropyl Betaine, CAS 61789-40-0, commonly abbreviated CAPB, is a coconut-derived amphoteric (zwitterionic) surfactant supplied as a spray-dried, high-active solid; the EC/EINECS number is 263-058-8.

Synonyms: CAPB; Cocoamidopropyl betaine; CADG; Cocamidopropyl dimethyl glycine.

CAS: 61789-40-0.

Representative molecular formula: C₁₉H₃₈N₂O₃.

Molecular weight: about 342.5 (representative).

EC number: 263-058-8.

It is a white to off-white, free-flowing powder with a mild, characteristic odor and a typical active matter of at least 95.0 wt%.

A 1% aqueous solution at 25 °C typically has a pH of 5.0–7.0; moisture is typically ≤3.0 wt% and sodium chloride ≤3.0 wt%.

Typical controls also include amine value ≤5.0 mg KOH/g and color ≤200 Hazen/APHA; the powder is readily soluble in water, produces high stable foam and is readily biodegradable.

It is used as a mild secondary surfactant in shampoos, 2-in-1 products, body wash, shower gel, liquid soap, facial cleansers, micellar products and baby shampoos; it boosts foam richness and stability, builds viscosity and reduces irritation from primary anionic surfactants such as SLES or SLS.

It is also used in dishwashing liquids, foam cleaners, household surface and bathroom cleaners, and high-foam car-wash products.

It is used in industrial detergents and degreasers, textile and leather auxiliaries, and as a wetting agent in certain agricultural or specialty formulations.

Confirm active matter, appearance, pH, moisture, free amidoamine or amine value, sodium chloride and microbial limits; the grade should match the intended cosmetic, personal-care or industrial use.

Store in tightly closed, moisture-protected containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at about 5–30 °C, away from direct sunlight, heat and strong oxidizers; use dust control and suitable PPE.
