Lauramidopropyl betaine CAS#4292-10-8

Lauramidopropyl betaine is a mild, biodegradable surfactant commonly used in personal care products and cleaning formulations. It is derived from coconut oil and is known for its foaming and wetting properties, making it ideal for creating rich lathers. This ingredient is particularly favored for its gentleness on the skin and its ability to cleanse without causing irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. It also contributes to the product’s viscosity and stability.

Lauramidopropyl betaine Usage And Synthesis

Description	Lauramidopropyl betaine is a new type of special amphoteric surfactant, which belongs to the same series as lauramidopropyl betaine, and is a modified derivative of alkyl betaine. Lauramidopropyl betaine has the characteristics of temperature resistance, acid and alkali resistance, good salt resistance, wide isoelectric point and strong viscoelasticity, etc. It is widely used in oil field oil repelling, leather, daily chemical industry and other fields. As a good viscoelastic surfactant applied to the substrate acidification of oilfield, it can effectively reduce the oil/water interfacial tension and improve the recovery rate of tertiary oil recovery. Also it can be used as conditioning agent, wetting agent, bactericide, antistatic agent, emulsifier, thickener and in self-steering acid system for carbonate acidification.
Uses	Lauroylamide Propylbetaine is used cosmetic and hair compositions of enhanced viscosity and clarity.
Flammability and Explosibility	Not classified
Toxicology	Lauramidopropyl betaine (50% component in cocamidopropyl betaine – as a model for cocamidopropyl betaine) is poorly absorbed from the intestinal tract and through the skin. Rinsing the skin after 10 minutes of contact reduces the absorption even further. Following oral or dermal exposure, there is metabolism of the absorbed material, as indicated by the appearance of a more polar compound in the urine and by the liberation of?¹⁴CO₂.
