  1. Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB) in Skincare Products Cocamidopropyl betaine is a fatty acid that is found in many personal hygiene and household products because it helps water bond with dirt, oil, and other debris, allowing them to be rinsed clean. Researchers discovered that the irritation to eyes and skin is caused by two impurities that occur during the manufacturing process, rather than by CAPB itself. If you're allergic to CAPB, it's possible that using it will cause skin or eye irritation. To avoid this problem, check labels and national product databases to see which products contain this chemical. Palvi Chemicals ranks among the top Cocamidopropyl betaine suppliers in Nigeria. CocoBetaine (Cocamidopropyl Betaine) is a 30 percent active aqueous surfactant solution derived from coconut oil. CocoBetaine (Cocamidopropyl Betaine) is a secondary surfactant in cleansing systems that contributes to viscosity and a smooth feel. Shampoos, bubble baths, and liquid hand soaps all contain it. CocoBetaine (Cocamidopropyl Betaine) has excellent wetting properties as well as good foaming and foam liquid stabilisation. CocoBetaine (Cocamidopropyl Betaine) is an amphoteric surfactant that can be used in conjunction with anionic, cationic, or (Cocamidopropyl Betaine) added to these surfactants would help to improve foam efficiency by reducing anionic surfactant discomfort, increasing non-ionic surfactant cleaning capacity, and bridging the gap to allow the use of cationics and non-ionics in combination for superior cleansing formulations. Palvi Chemicals is a leading Cocamidopropyl betaine exporter in Ghana. nonionic surfactants. CocoBetaine Production: Despite its name, cocamidopropyl betaine is not derived from betaine. It is instead made in two steps, beginning with the reaction of dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA)

  2. with fatty acids from coconut or palm kernel oil. Because the primary amine in DMAPA is more reactive than the tertiary amine, it is added selectively to form an amide. Chloroacetic acid reacts with the remaining tertiary amine in the second step to form a quaternary ammonium centre. CH3(CH2)10COOH + H2NCH2CH2CH2N(CH3)2→ CH3(CH2)10CONHCH2CH2CH2N(CH3)2 ClCH2CO2H + NaOH → CH3(CH2)10CONHCH2CH2CH2N(CH3)2 + CH3(CH2)10CONHCH2CH2CH2N+(CH3)2CH2CO2− + NaCl + H2O Palvi Chemicals is one of the dominant Cocamidopropyl betaine distributors in Nigeria.

  3. Side effects of CAPB: Allergic reaction: When some people use CAPB-containing products, they develop an allergic reaction. It is two impurities produced during the manufacturing process that cause an allergic reaction, not the CAPB itself. Aminoamide (AA) and 3-dimethylaminopropylamine are the two irritants (DMAPA). People who were exposed to CAPB that did not contain these two impurities did not have an allergic reaction in multiple studies. Purified higher grades of CAPB do not contain AA or DMAPA and do not cause allergic reactions. Skin discomfort: If your skin is sensitive to CAPB-containing products, you may experience tightness, redness, or itchiness after using the product. Contact dermatitis is the medical term for this type of reaction. If you have severe dermatitis, you may develop blisters or sores where the product came into contact with your skin. An allergic skin reaction like this will usually heal on its own, or when you stop using the irritating product or use an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. Consult a doctor if the rash does not improve within a few days, or if it grows near your eyes or mouth. Palvi Chemicals is a prominent Cocamidopropyl betaine supplier in Ghana. Irritation in the Eyes: CAPB can be found in a variety of products intended for use in your eyes, such as contact solutions, as well as products that may get into your eyes while showering. If you are sensitive to the impurities in CAPB, you may notice the following symptoms in your eyes or eyelids: ●Pain ●Redness ●Itchiness ●Swelling

  4. If washing the product away doesn’t relieve your irritation, it is highly advisable for you to consult a doctor at the earliest.
