Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB) is a mild amphoteric surfactant derived from coconut oil, widely used in personal care and home care products. It enhances foaming, viscosity, and cleansing performance while being gentle on skin. Its compatibility with anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactants makes it ideal for shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and liquid soaps. CAPB also reduces irritation and improves formulation stability, making it a preferred ingredient in mild cleansing systems.
