PEG-6 Lauramide DEA is a nonionic surfactant derived from lauric acid and diethanolamine, further ethoxylated with polyethylene glycol. It is commonly used as a foam booster, viscosity enhancer, and stabilizer in personal care formulations. This ingredient improves product thickness, enhances lather, and provides mild cleansing action. It is especially suitable for shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers due to its compatibility with anionic and amphoteric surfactants.
