Product Application

Cocamide MEA is typically used as a foam stabilizer and viscosifier in soaps, powdered detergents, industrial and personal care applications.

  • Emulsifying : Promotes the formation of intimate mixtures between immiscible liquids by modifying the interfacial tension (water and oil)
  • Emulsion stabilising : Promotes the emulsification process and improves the stability and shelf life of the emulsion
  • Foam boosting : Improves the quality of the foam produced by a system by increasing one or more of the following properties: volume, texture and/or stability
  • Surfactant : Reduces the surface tension of cosmetics and contributes to the even distribution of the product when it is used
  • Viscosity controlling : Increases or decreases the viscosity of cosmetics

Storage and Handling

Cocamide MEA should be stored in sealed containers below 30°C in a dry place out of direct sunlight.Handle between 25°C – 35°C. Cocamide MEA will require heat to incorporate, 65-75°C until dissolved is recommended. Avoid prolonged exposure to heating as this may lead to degradation.
