Stearamidopropylbetaine (SAB/SAPB)
CAS 6179-44-8
Stearamidopropylbetaine (CAS 6179-44-8) is a mild, amphoteric surfactant derived from stearic acid. It is widely used in personal care products such as shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and hair conditioners, as well as in household and industrial cleaning formulations, where it provides excellent conditioning, antistatic effects, foam boosting and stabilization, viscosity improvement when co-formulated with anionics, and effective reduction of irritation caused by anionic surfactants like SLS and SLES. Additionally, it offers good lime soap dispersing ability in hard water conditions, is readily biodegradable, and is classified as Other (Surfactant/Additive) in metal surface treatment applications, making it an ideal choice for formulators seeking a balance of mildness, performance, and environmental compatibility.
>> Main Uses
Stearamidopropylbetaine (SAB/SAPB, CAS 6179-44-8) is primarily used as a mild amphoteric surfactant in personal care products including shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, baby products, and hair conditioners, where it provides conditioning, antistatic effects, foam boosting and stabilization, while significantly reducing the irritation caused by anionic surfactants such as SLS and SLES. In household and industrial cleaning applications, it serves as an effective additive in liquid detergents, hand soaps, and automatic dishwashing formulations, enhancing foam volume and stability, improving viscosity when co-formulated with anionics, and offering excellent lime soap dispersing ability in hard water conditions. For metal surface treatment, it functions as a supporting surfactant additive in cleaning formulations, providing wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing properties that assist in degreasing and soil removal, though it is not classified as a dedicated degreaser, rust-proofing, or phosphating agent.
