Cocamidopropyl Betaine 30% (CAPB 30%) is a high-performance amphoteric surfactant widely used in personal care, cosmetic, and hygiene formulations. Known for its excellent mildness, foam-boosting capability, and strong compatibility with anionic surfactants, CAPB 30% is an essential raw material for manufacturers seeking balanced cleansing performance with reduced irritation.

As a trusted CAPB 30% supplier and exporter, we provide consistent, export-grade quality suitable for global cosmetic and personal care markets.

What Is Cocamidopropyl Betaine 30%?

Cocamidopropyl Betaine (INCI: Cocamidopropyl Betaine) is an amphoteric surfactant derived from natural fatty acids, typically sourced from coconut oil. At a 30% active concentration, CAPB 30% is commonly used as a secondary surfactant to enhance foam, improve skin feel, and reduce the harshness of primary anionic surfactants such as SLES and SLS.

Its amphoteric nature allows it to function effectively across a wide pH range, making it suitable for diverse formulation systems.

Key Functional Benefits of CAPB 30%

Cocamidopropyl Betaine 30% offers a unique combination of performance and mildness, making it one of the most widely used surfactants in modern personal care products.

CAPB 30% acts as a powerful foam booster and stabilizer, improving foam volume and durability even in hard water conditions. When blended with anionic surfactants, it significantly reduces skin and eye irritation, resulting in gentler formulations suitable for frequent use and sensitive skin.

Its strong synergy with SLES and SLS enhances cleansing efficiency without increasing harshness. CAPB 30% also contributes to better viscosity control, improved texture, and a smoother, more luxurious sensory profile in liquid formulations. Thanks to its broad pH stability, it offers excellent flexibility for formulation design.

Typical Applications of CAPB 30%

Cocamidopropyl Betaine 30% is widely used in a broad range of rinse-off personal care and hygiene products, including:

  • Hair shampoos and conditioning shampoos

  • Body wash and shower gel formulations

  • Facial cleansers and sensitive-skin washes

  • Liquid hand soaps and antibacterial cleansers

  • Baby shampoos and mild personal care products

Its mild cleansing profile makes CAPB 30% particularly suitable for sulfate-reduced and sulfate-free formulations.
