What is Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate CAS 301341-58-2?

Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate is an anionic amino-acid surfactant made from coconut fatty acids and glycine. Its INCI name is Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate, with CAS 301341-58-2, EC 620-582-5, molecular formula C28H53KNO5+, and molecular weight about 522.82 g/mol.

What supply forms are available for Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate?

It is commonly offered as a clear to slightly yellow liquid, often with about 25-30% active matter, or as a high-active white to off-white powder, often around 95% active matter. The correct form should be chosen according to the target surfactant concentration and manufacturing process.

How is Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate used in sulfate-free formulations?

It works well as a primary or co-surfactant in amino-acid and sulfate-free cleansing systems. It helps build dense, creamy foam and is often combined with other mild surfactants to balance cleansing, foam quality, and after-feel in shampoo, shower gel, and facial cleanser formulations.

What pH and compatibility factors should be checked?

The supplier pH range depends on grade and test dilution, commonly around 6.0-9.0 for a 1% solution. As an anionic surfactant, it should be checked for compatibility with cationic conditioning agents or preservatives, and stored away from prolonged high temperatures and moisture.

Product Description

Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate CAS 301341-58-2 is an anionic amino-acid surfactant with EINECS 620-582-5 and molecular formula C28H53KNO5.

Synonyms: Potassium N-cocoyl glycinate; N-cocoacylglycine potassium salts.

CAS: 301341-58-2.

Molecular formula: C28H53KNO5.

It is commonly offered as a clear to slightly yellow liquid or a high-active white to off-white powder.

It is made from coconut fatty acids and glycine.

It is positioned as a mild cleansing and foaming surfactant with good skin compatibility.

It is commonly selected for facial cleansers, body wash, baby care, and sensitive-skin rinse-off products.

It can clean without the heavy degreasing often associated with stronger primary surfactants.

It works well as a primary or co-surfactant in amino-acid and sulfate-free cleansing systems.

Confirm active matter, appearance, pH, chloride content, and related impurities or residual solvent.

As an anionic surfactant, check compatibility with cationic conditioning agents or preservatives.

Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from prolonged high temperatures and moisture.

Use appropriate PPE and prevent spills or contamination.

Confirm packaging suitable for the supply form and order quantity, and follow the current SDS.

Every batch is checked for active matter, appearance, pH, chloride content, and related impurities, with COA/TDS/SDS supplied per grade.

Confirm active matter, pH, packaging, and grade as required.
