About

A mild amphoteric surfactant used to clean and reduce irritation in shampoos and body washes. Generally well tolerated; grade-dependent trace impurities are the main caveat.

Skin benefits

  • Amphoteric surfactant for gentle cleansing
  • Lather and foam booster in shampoos and washes
  • Good compatibility with anionic surfactants — reduces eye/skin irritation

Known concerns

  • Possible mild residual amine impurities depending on grade
  • Limited dedicated CIR review at the level of canonical actives
  • Generally low irritation but trace nitrosamine potential exists in some amphoterics
