Product description:

Dodecyl/Tetradecyl Hydroxy Propyl Sulfobetaine is a zwitterionic surfactant designed for use in personal care, cleansing, and selected industrial formulations. It offers good water solubility and compatibility with anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactant systems, providing formulation flexibility across a range of applications.

Its amphoteric character supports foam performance, wetting, viscosity adjustment, conditioning, and formulation stability under different processing conditions. ZXCHEM supplies FS LAB-35 and FS LAB-40 grades with different active matter levels to meet varying formulation and production requirements.

Product Applications:

Our beef bone broth powder is widely used across the following applications:

  • Shampoo & Hair Cleansing — Used in shampoo and hair cleansing systems to support foam quality, viscosity, and conditioning performance.
  • Body Wash & Liquid Soap — Suitable for body wash, shower gel, hand wash, and liquid soap formulations requiring compatible surfactant combinations.
  • Facial & Mild Cleansers — Can be incorporated into rinse-off facial and mild cleansing formulations where balanced foam and formulation mildness are desired.
  • Hair & Skin Care Formulations— Used in selected hair and skin care systems for conditioning, antistatic, and formulation-support functions.
  • Household Cleaning— Suitable for liquid household detergent and general cleaning formulations requiring wetting, foaming, and surfactant compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

The two grades differ primarily in active matter, pH range, evaporation residue, and sodium chloride specifications. The appropriate grade should be selected according to the formulation concentration, processing conditions, and desired finished-product performance.
It can be incorporated into blended surfactant systems containing anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants. Final compatibility and performance should be evaluated within the customer’s complete formulation.
Not necessarily on a one-to-one basis. Differences in active matter, salt content, pH, viscosity response, and overall formulation behavior should be considered before substitution. Laboratory evaluation is recommended.
As a zwitterionic surfactant, its behavior can vary depending on the surrounding formulation and pH conditions. Customers should evaluate foam, viscosity, compatibility, and stability within the intended finished formulation.
