SensaFoam™ 1218 KB 5

1 of 11 products in this brand

SensaFoam™ 1218 KB 5 is a liquid-form product suitable for personal care, beauty, and HI&I applications. It offers benefits such as cold processability, foam stability, and improved viscosity. As a secondary surfactant, it mitigates the irritancy of primary anionic surfactants without compromising on detergency, producing formulations that are milder to the skin. Also works well as a primary surfactant in very mild, sulfate-free formulations for babies and adults with sensitive skins and scalps.

Product Highlights
  • Low viscosity aqueous solution (pumpable); active matter app. 30%.
  • SensaFoam™ 1218 KB 5 is regarded as an amphoteric surfactant; it is cold processible with anionic, cationic, and non-ionic surfactants.
  • Good foaming properties, good foam quality (finely porous and stable); quality of foam is not influenced by hardness of water.
  • Skin and mucous membrane compatibility of common anionic surfactants, which strongly reduce the quantity of cutaneous fat and are relatively aggressive towards skin and mucosa, is improved by the addition of SensaFoam™ 1218 KB 5.
  • In hair and skin cleansing preparations SensaFoam™ 1218 KB 5 can give conditioning effect because of its substantivity.
  • Biodegradable (98% according to OECDConfirmatory-Test). The product is preserved with a Benzoic acid derivative.
  • A significant increase in viscosity is obtained, if SensaFoam™ 1218 KB 5 is combined with various anionic surfactants.
  • Viscosities depend on the pHvalue of the formulations; maximum viscosity is attained in the slightly acid pH-range
