Sodium cocoate

Sodium cocoate ( CAS 61789-31-9 ) is the sodium salt of coconut fatty acids, produced by saponification of coconut oil. Known commercially as coconut soap or coco soap, it functions as an anionic surfactant. This versatile ingredient delivers cleansing, lathering, and emulsification in both personal care and industrial formulations. In bar soap manufacturing, it forms the primary cleansing base for many products. It contributes a dense, stable lather and skin-conditioning character derived from coconut oil's fatty acid profile. Liquid and cream cleansers incorporate it as a foaming and emulsifying agent. Shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers utilize this surfactant for its effective performance. Industrial and institutional cleaning compounds use it for degreasing hard surfaces in various facilities. It is particularly useful where biodegradable, soap-based formulations are preferred over synthetic detergents. In textile and leather processing, it acts as a scouring and wetting agent for raw materials. Sodium cocoate is supplied as a paste, liquid, or flaked solid depending on concentration. Standard commercial grades include technical-grade for industrial cleaning and textile applications. Cosmetic-grade material is also available, meeting specifications relevant to personal care manufacturing. Bulk supply is typically offered in drums or IBCs for liquid and paste forms. Flakes are available in bags or bulk sacks to suit different production requirements. This product remains a staple for manufacturers seeking natural, plant-derived surfactant solutions.
