MACKAM® 2CSF-40CG

1 of 62 products in this brand
MACKAM® 2CSF-40CG is an alcohol- and salt-free, mild amphoteric surfactant designed for personal care and industrial formulations. In personal care, it effectively couples conditioning agents into shampoos and body washes, offering high foaming properties, making it suitable for mild shampoos, baby shampoos, and body washes. For industrial applications, it helps incorporate nonionic surfactants into formulations with high electrolyte levels and is stable across a broad pH range. MACKAM® 2CSF-40CG is ideal in systems where sodium chloride may affect product performance or cause corrosion and can reduce irritation from other surfactants.
