MACKAM® C 37B MB is a high-purity grade of cocamidopropyl betaine with a stripped alkyl distribution. It is stable and effective over a broad pH range and is compatible with anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactants. This product features exceptionally low and stable color with minimal residual odor. Compared to MACKAM® 35UL and other standard grades of cocamidopropyl betaine, MACKAM® C 37B MB provides better flash foam and viscosity building, particularly with lauryl sulfates, lauryl ether sulfates, and alpha olefin sulfates in anionic-based systems. It is preserved with sodium benzoate. Please submit a document request or general inquiry form if you’d like to access an SDS in another language.
