Request SDS →Disodium cocamido MEA-sulfosuccinate (CAS 68955-19-1) is an anionic sulfosuccinate surfactant derived from coconut fatty-acid monoethanolamide. It functions as a surface-active agent in cleansing and personal-care formulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is disodium cocamido MEA-sulfosuccinate used for?
It is an anionic sulfosuccinate surfactant (CAS 68955-19-1) derived from coconut fatty-acid monoethanolamide. It functions as a wetting and cleansing surface-active agent and as a secondary (co-)surfactant in surfactant blends for cleansing formulations.
Is disodium cocamido MEA-sulfosuccinate the same as sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS)?
No. SLS is a sulfate ester surfactant; this product is a sulfosuccinate half-ester (a different anionic class, CAS 68955-19-1) made from a coconut fatty amide. They are distinct chemistries — verify the CAS on the CoA.
Is disodium cocamido MEA-sulfosuccinate a sulfate?
No. It is a sulfosuccinate (a sulfonate-bearing succinic-acid half-ester), not a sulfate ester. The two classes differ in their sulfur linkage and are not interchangeable on a specification. Confirm identity via the CAS on the CoA.
What is the HS code and CAS for disodium cocamido MEA-sulfosuccinate?
CAS 68955-19-1; it classifies under HS 3402.39 (anionic organic surface-active agents, other). Identity is confirmed on the CoA and the SDS supplied with each shipment.
How is this surfactant supplied in bulk?
It is typically supplied as an aqueous solution at a stated active percentage in drums, totes, or bulk to personal-care and cleaning-product formulators. Active level, packaging, and pricing are quote-dependent; submit a bulk RFQ for a quote, CoA, and SDS.
