H Care® COAB-45 is a high active cocamidopropyl betaine derived from triglyceride oil. This high-activity, mild, amphoteric surfactant is used as a secondary surfactant, foam booster, and viscosity builder in personal care products. It is readily biodegradable according to OECD 301 methods. This product also meets the criteria for a surfactant under the EU Detergents Regulation (EC) 648/2004.

H Care® 1C is a plant-derived alkyl imidazoline monocarboxylic acid amphoteric. H Care® 1C provides mild cleansing, counter-irritancy, light conditioning, and high foaming properties. This product is ideal for use in a wide variety of personal care products. It is readily biodegradable per OECD 301 methods and meets the criteria for a surfactant under the EU Detergents Regulation (EC) 648/2004.

H Care® DL is a non-ionic surfactant used to improve foam, viscosity, and feel properties of personal care formulations. Formulations that use H Care® DL offer a noticeable improvement in the esthetics of shampoos and hand soaps over non-amide formulations. It is recommended for ‚¬Å“DEA-free‚¬ formulations.

H Care® 2CM-40CG is a salt-free, methanol-free amphoteric surfactant with mild characteristics that are useful in a variety of formulations. It is used to couple conditioning agents into cleaners such as shampoos and body washes, and provides high foam for body washes, baby shampoos, and other mild personal care products. It also has the potential to reduce irritation in other surfactants used in the formulation.

H Care® 2NALS is a very mild, nearly colorless sulfosuccinate derived from a three-mole ethoxylated lauryl alcohol. It provides excellent foam properties that can be enhanced by blending with sodium laureth sulfate. The combination of these two surfactants provides a product that is mild to both skin and eyes, has good foam performance, and improves viscosity response. This grade is preserved with KATHON® CG.

H Care® MO is an exceptional amine oxide-based zwitterionic surfactant designed for personal care formulations. This highly effective ingredient is specifically formulated with a C14 (tetradecyl) alkyl tail, which makes it ideal for use as a foam stabilizer and hair conditioning agent in shampoos and conditioners.

H Care® DIPA is a DEA-free 1:1 coconut diisopropanolamide derived from triglyceride oil. H Care® DIPA is well-suited for 'natural' formulations. It is stable in neutral, alkaline, and acidic systems. Its appearance is a clear, viscous liquid with a maximum color (Gardner) of 3. The pH (10% aqueous) ranges from 10.0 to 11.5.

H Care® SAO is an excellent foam booster for low-pH formulations with stable foaming at lower pH ranges. Enhanced foam and viscosity building properties are achieved by replacing alkanolamides commonly used in formulations. It is a nonionic surfactant compatible with anionic and cationic systems and offers effective tolerance to electrolytes, permitting improved hard water performance.

H Care® DG UP is a 100% bio-based nonionic surfactant that can be used in combination with traditional or sulfate-free surfactants to improve foam, mildness, and fragrance solubilization. It has excellent foam and low irritation potential. It can be used as a primary surfactant or as a co-surfactant in a wide variety of personal care and household formulations.

H Care® LA-40 MB is a Certified Mass Balance (RSPO) product. It is derived from palm oil that contributes to the production of certified sustainable palm oil. This odorless, mild sulfosuccinate is derived from natural lauryl alcohol. It has more than 65% bio-based carbon content due to the vegetable origin of the lauryl alcohol used. This is a sulfate-free, PEG-free, and 1,4-dioxane-free material, which makes it ideal for natural-based, sulfate-free formulations. It provides very dense, voluminous foam and has a talc-like after-feel. It's mild to eyes and useful in sensitive skin cleansers. Despite its high Krafft point, this can be used to formulate clear products.

H Care® SCS is an anionic surfactant that is naturally derived from coconut oil. Although heat is required to fully dissolve the material, it is easily dispersible in water. It provides excellent lather and dense, creamy foam. It also has thickening and conditioning properties and can be an excellent replacement for most anionic surfactants in personal cleansing products.

H Care® CBS-HP is a glycerin-free amphoteric surfactant in the sultaine class. H Care® CBS-HP exhibits outstanding surface activity, wetting, foaming, and compatibility in a wide variety of applications. Due to its amphoteric nature, It is compatible with cationic, anionic, and nonionic surfactants and is stable over a broad pH range. This product is free of processing aids and preservatives, allowing greater flexibility for all types of cleansing formulations. H Care® CBS-HP also displays greater hydrotropic properties than betaines to deliver extra clarity in personal care formulas.

H Care® AME has unique antistatic, moisturizing, and humectant properties. It is a good choice for both skin and hair conditioning products. For shampoos, superior conditioning can be built-in, allowing for excellent wet combing properties. It leaves hair with good manageability, reduces "fly away," and provides sheen to hair. It is also a suitable conditioner for body washes and lotions.

H Care® 2C is a coco imidazoline-derived dicarboxylic acid amphoteric. It is one of the mildest amphoteric surfactants of its class. It provides a moderate lather and cleans without removing dermal lipids from the skin to give a rich, conditioning effect. It is stable over a wide pH range and can be used as the only surfactant in commercial products such as moist wipes.

H Care® CPE-K MB is a naturally derived, excellent water-soluble O/W emulsifier and emulsion stabilizer. It can be used as the primary emulsifier, combining with low HLB co-emulsifiers to achieve highly stable emulsions. It is easily dissolved into the hot water phase during emulsion processing. At low use levels, It will enhance the stability of any emulsion and at higher concentrations will aid in building the viscosity of creams and lotions. It can replace stearic acid salts in most preparations. This product is ideally suited for use in many dermatological and personal care products, providing a silky powdery after-feel. It is completely non-irritating.
