Personal Care Ingredients

EA plus CDEA from Brillachem is an exceptional nonionic surfactant known for its superior thickening, foaming, and foam-stabilizing abilities. It is ideal for shampoos, liquid soaps, and detergents and enhances wetting, cleaning, and dispersing performance while improving foam richness and stability when combined with anionic surfactants like LAS. Additionally, CDEA helps reduce skin irritation, softens fibers such as wool, and boosts the overall washing effect, making it a versatile choice for personal care, household, and industrial cleaning products.

EAplus CMMEA from Brillachem is a unique alkyl alkanol nonionic mild surfactant known for its boosting and thickening effects, as well as excellent solubilization in shampoos and body soaps with anionic surfactants. It offers quick foaming and strong foam stabilization when combined with silicone or oils. Its liquid form makes it easy to handle and use. Importantly, EAplus CMMEA can replace CDE (cocamide DEA), which contains nitrosamines classified as potentially carcinogenic. This replacement offers improved performance benefits without the associated health risks, making it a safer choice for personal care formulations.

BEROL SURFBOOST AD15 surfactant is a non-classified co-surfactant that is readily biodegradable under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Made with RSPO-certified raw materials, it meets EU and Nordic Ecolabel standards, making it ideal for environmentally friendly household and industrial cleaning. This moderate-foaming alkyl amide ethoxylate boosts cleaning performance beyond typical formulations at equal active matter and pH. It is suitable for a wide range of applications including car cleaners and hard surface cleaning where sustainability and efficacy are key.
