Lauryl/Cetyl/LaurylCetyl Alkyl Betaines |
| |
| |
MACAT Alkyl Betaines are 40% active lauryl (C12), cetyl (C16), or lauryl/cetyl (C12/16) dimethyl betaines in water. MACAT Alkyl Betaines are classic zwitterion surfactants with good detergency and coupling performance, with exceptional mildness to skin.
The exceptional quality of MACAT Alkyl Betaines allows for use in a wide range of markets and applications. In Personal Care, MACAT Alkyl Betaines are based on the renewable vegetable lipid found in coconut oil, and with their exceptional mildness, are uniquely natural compliments for use in hair shampoos, conditioners and rinses skin cleansers. HI&I Cleaners formulations can benefit from the superior coupling performance for improved detergency, foam stabilizing and ingredient compatibility.
MACAT Alkyl Betaines are biodegradable, and contains no solvents or VOCs, exhibiting very low toxicity with an LD50 (Rats) of >5000 mg/kg and at 10% active, cause minimal eye irritation, and are not considered primary dermal irritants.
INCI Names/CAS#: Lauryl Betaine/683-10-3, Cetyl Betaine/693-33-4

| Handling Information |
Refer
to the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) available from Mason Chemical
Company for information on the safe use, handling and disposal of
this product.
Betaines are inner salts, or zwitterions of substituted alkyl derivatives of N, N-dimethyl glycine. Often characterized as amphoteric surfactants, betaines are actually inner salts, or zwitterions, because the quaternary nitrogen atom always carries a positive charge regardless of pH.
