THE STORY OF NANOSURF C2AMPHO
Nanosurf C2Ampho: The Ultra-Mild Cleanser for Sensitive & Sulfate-Free Formulas
Nanosurf C2Ampho is a ultra-mild amphoteric surfactant derived from coconut oil. Known for its low irritation, gentle foam, and conditioning properties, it is widely used in baby care, sensitive skin cleansers, sulfate-free shampoos, and premium body washes. It improves mildness, boosts foam stability, and enhances rinseability.
Coconut-Based Amphoteric Surfactant Made for Dermatological Mildness
This surfactant is produced by reacting coconut fatty acids with amino acids and acetic acid derivatives, forming a zwitterionic molecule.
Its amphoteric nature allows it to:
• Adjust behavior based on pH
• Work in synergy with anionic surfactants
• Reduce irritation of SLS/SLES systems
TRCkem provides high-purity, low-salt cosmetic-grade Nanoasurf C2Ampho for mild cleansing formulations.
