The type of foam obtained is extraordinary to the touch and is creamy, fine and stable. The obtained detergent will be free of surfactants derived from petroleum chemistry, sulfates, heterosulphates and pegs derived. Coco barley amino acids is a natural product, ecocert cosmos certifiable, ecosustainable and ecodegradable. Natural highly foaming and foam stabilizer lipo-amino acid for the preparation of eco-friendly and dermo-compatible detergents.

Applications & Uses

Use

Coco Barley Amino Acids is highly recommended in those detergents that guarantee a delicate, dermatologically safe, vegetal and eco-sustainable detergency. It can be used as the only detergent substance or in combination with common surfactants used in cosmetics. It is colorless and odorless and therefore easy to use. With this product is possible to create cosmetic detergents without petroleum derivatives: in this case, in order to obtain the viscosity in low active solutions, we recommend the use of alkylamidobetaine, and the peak is reached at pH 5.8 – 6.3 approx. Coco Barley Amino Acids also has an excellent solubilizing power for perfumes. The product is Ecocert Cosmos certifiable and can therefore be used in Ecocert Cosmos formulations.
