Evonik introduces TEGO® Betain P 50 C - The cost-efficient, concentrated Cocamidopropyl Betaine based on RSPO certified palm kernel oil

• The new 38% active betaine provides superior thickening which can reduce the formulation cost.
• The easily processable secondary surfactant can be used in a wide range of surfactant systems delivering excellent foam and improved mildness.

Nowadays, cosmetics producers and end consumers are more and more looking for cost-effective and mild cleansing products with excellent foaming and pleasing rheological properties. Additionally, there is a growing global demand for responsibly sourced feedstocks.

Based on these requirements Evonik, a global leader in the secondary surfactant market and supporter of responsible care, launches TEGO®Betain P 50 C (INCI: Cocamidopropyl Betaine), a novel concentrated surfactant based on RSPO certified sustainable palm kernel oil. Due to its exceptional thickening performance, it provides an improved cost/performance ratio compared to standard CAPBs. Furthermore, the 38% active betaine is easy to process and delivers generous foam combined with a pleasant skinfeel. 

The predominantly renewable, RSPO-certified palm-based feedstock and the high product purity of the preservative-free TEGO® Betain P 50 C support a more environmentally conscious approach in the cosmetic industry.

TEGO® Betain P 50 C is suitable for a broad range of application formats in the cleansing care market, including body washes, shampoos, liquid soaps, foam baths, oral care and soap bars.
