Description

Cocodiethanolamide (CDEA) is not a chemical pigment; instead, it’s a surfactant and foam booster commonly used in various personal care and household products. Its primary function is to enhance the foaming properties of cleansing agents like shampoos, body washes, liquid soaps, and detergents.

CDEA is derived from coconut oil and diethanolamine, and it works by reducing the surface tension of water, allowing it to spread more easily and create stable foam. In addition to its foaming properties, CDEA also acts as an emulsifier, helping to blend oil and water-based ingredients in formulations, thus improving the overall stability and efficacy of the product.
