About

Lauraminopropylamine is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Lauraminopropylamine is a fatty amine produced by reacting lauric acid (C12) with propylenediamine. It functions as a surfactant and emulsifying agent in cosmetic formulations. Fatty amine derivatives are known to be potential skin sensitizers in susceptible individuals and certain amine surfactants have been subject to review by the EU Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS). Under EU Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009, certain amine derivatives are restricted under Annex III, and lauraminopropylamine warrants attention for sensitization potential.
