Cocamidopropyl Betaine CAPB 35% for Personal Care and Detergent Formulations

Cocamidopropyl Betaine, also listed as CAB or CAPB, CAS 61789-40-0, is an amphoteric surfactant commonly sourced for personal care, cosmetics, and detergent formulations. Buyers should confirm active content grade, appearance, pH, viscosity, free amine, sodium chloride, color, packing format, COA consistency, and export document readiness before placing an RFQ.

How we compare

Sourcing options

  • Request CAPB 35% in 200 kg drums for standard personal care and detergent production.
  • Request CAPB 30% if lower active content is acceptable and landed cost is prioritized.
  • Ask for factory-direct quotation by active matter, not only by drum or ton price.
  • Request pre-shipment sample and batch COA before confirming container quantity.
  • Compare Vietnam and Thailand landed cost using sea freight, local import duties, port charges, and inland trucking.
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Confirm exact CAS identity, INCI name, active matter basis, and whether the product is CAPB 30% or CAPB 35% before purchase.
  • Request COA, TDS, SDS, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and any required export declaration documents.
  • Check whether the supplier can provide impurity details relevant to personal care use, especially free amine, sodium chloride, color, and residual impurities covered by the buyer's internal specifications.
  • Confirm destination market requirements for cosmetic, detergent, or industrial use in Vietnam, Thailand, or other importing countries with the local importer or regulatory consultant.
  • Verify DG classification, HS code, transport conditions, and whether the product ships as non-dangerous goods under the selected route before booking.
  • No regulatory approval, cosmetic claim, or end-use compliance should be assumed from the marketplace listing alone.
