Product Introduction

Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate is a mild, biodegradable anionic surfactant derived from natural plant sources (coconut oil and glutamic acid). Recognized as a benchmark for “green” surfactants, it is widely used in high-end personal care and home cleaning products due to its exceptional skin-friendliness, mildness, and effective cleansing properties.

Product Highlights

Extreme Mildness & Skin Compatibility
Its amino-acid-based structure is similar to that of the skin’s stratum corneum, making it exceptionally gentle on the skin and eyes—suitable even for infants and sensitive skin.

Effective Cleansing & Rich Lathering
Produces a fine, abundant, and elastic foam. It offers balanced cleansing power that effectively removes dirt and excess oil, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and comfortable.

Excellent Formulation Compatibility
Can be combined with other surfactants (such as amphoteric and non-ionic types) to enhance overall mildness and user experience through synergistic effects.

Biodegradable & Eco-Friendly
Sourced from natural origins and fully biodegradable, it supports environmentally responsible and sustainable product development.

Good Hard Water Resistance
Maintains effective cleansing and foaming performance even in hard water, without forming soap scum.
