Coco diethanolamide is a non-ionic surfactant and foam booster derived from coconut oil and diethanolamine. It is widely used in personal care, household cleaning, textile processing, and industrial formulations. It enhances foam stability, thickens liquid products, and improves emulsification and wetting performance.

Industrial Uses

1. Personal Care

  • Foaming Agent: Commonly used in shampoos, body washes, and hand soaps to increase foam volume and stability.
  • Viscosity Booster: Enhances the thickness of liquid personal care products for improved texture and feel.
  • Emollient: Provides a softening effect on skin, improving the sensory experience.

2. Cleaning & Disinfectants

  • Surfactant in Detergents: Acts as a foam stabilizer and cleaning booster in household and industrial cleaning products.
  • Degreasing Agent: Effective in removing oils and grease from surfaces due to its amphiphilic nature.
  • Stabilizer: Improves the performance and stability of formulations in liquid cleaners.

3. Fabric Solutions

  • Wetting Agent: Facilitates the penetration of water and chemicals into fabrics during washing and dyeing processes.
  • Detergent Component: Used in scouring formulations for cleaning textile fibers before dyeing.

4. Agrochemicals

  • Emulsifier: Helps in emulsifying oil-based agrochemical formulations, ensuring uniform mixing.
  • Spreader: Improves the coverage of sprays on plant surfaces by reducing surface tension.
