Mirataine CB
Description
Mirataine CB (CAS 86438-79-1), commonly identified in the market as CAPB or Lauramidopropyl Betaine, is an amphoteric surfactant derived from coconut oil fatty acids. It functions across personal care, textile, and industrial cleaning applications.
This versatile chemical acts as a foam booster, viscosity modifier, and mild cleansing agent that performs across a wide pH range. In shampoos, body washes, and liquid hand soaps, it is used to boost and stabilize foam.
The product works effectively with primary anionic surfactants while reducing overall formulation irritancy. Textile and leather processors use it as a softening and antistatic agent during finishing operations to improve quality.
It also aids in dye dispersion and fiber lubrication for high-performance textile manufacturing. In industrial and institutional cleaning formulations, it contributes to degreasing performance and helps build viscosity without additional thickeners.
Paper manufacturers incorporate it to improve surface wetting and fiber bonding during wet-end processing. The material is supplied as a clear to slightly hazy aqueous liquid, typically at 30% active matter concentration.
It is available in personal care-grade specifications suitable for use in cosmetic formulations compliant with major regional regulatory frameworks. Bulk supply is standard in IBC containers and drums for global logistics.
Technical-grade options are also available for industrial cleaning and textile applications. This ensures that manufacturers can select the appropriate purity level for their specific production requirements and end-use cases.
