Description

Sodium cocoyl glycinate (CAS 90387-74-9 ), also marketed as sodium lauroyl glycinate, is a mild amino acid-based surfactant derived from glycine and coconut fatty acids. It functions as a gentle cleanser, foam booster, and emulsifier across personal care and cosmetic formulations. In facial cleansers, shampoos, and body washes, it delivers effective cleansing with low irritation potential. This is a key consideration for sensitive-skin and baby-care product lines where mildness is a primary requirement. Formulators incorporate it into solid bars and syndet formats where it contributes lather quality and skin-feel. It provides these benefits without the harshness associated with conventional sulfate surfactants used in traditional soaps. Its compatibility with amphoteric and nonionic co-surfactants makes it a practical choice for sulfate-free formulation systems. These systems are often used when targeting premium or natural-positioned brands in the global marketplace. In oral care products such as toothpastes and mouthwashes, it supports mild foaming and cleaning performance at low use levels. This versatility allows it to be used across a wide range of hygiene and beauty applications. Sodium cocoyl glycinate is supplied as a powder or as an aqueous solution, with solution concentrations typically ranging around 30%. Both technical and cosmetic-grade material are available for industrial procurement. Cosmetic-grade product conforms to standard purity requirements for personal care applications. Buyers should confirm the fatty acid chain profile, such as pure lauroyl versus coconut-derived mixed-chain, when specifying for formulation consistency.
