Cosmetics & Personal Care Formulations with Foaming Agents

Silicone Quaternium-8 helps to provide a moisturized, silky skin feel without the greasiness often associated with silicone fluids. Unlike many silicones, Silicone Quaternium-8 will not impair foaming properties – it will actually enhance and stabilize foam.

This baby shampoo features CROVOL™ A-70 and CRODATERIC™ CAS 50, naturally derived surfactants that give this formula its mildness. Besides its ability to reduce the irritation of surfactant/shampoo systems, CROVOL A-70 is also used here as a wetting agent and fragrance solubilizer. CRODATERIC CAS 50 is a mild foam booster and produces a creamy lather. CROTHIX™ is used to thicken the formula. Using a fragrance with a 'baby-fresh' smell adds to its appeal.

SELF FOAMING CLEANSER

This innovative Foaming Liquid Soap has low viscosity and rich, abundant foam when applied through the foaming valve. The foam's creaminess and stability is provided by Merquat™ 740 conditioning polymer and by the surfactant system. This system consists of the naturally derived soap Potassium Cocoate, Chembetaine™ OL-30 surfactant which delivers an emollient sensory, Chemoxide™ LO-PF amine oxide which boosts the foam and helps to stabilize the formula, and Chemonic™ LI-7 surfactant which aids in the solubilization of the fragrance and imparts emolliency to the skin. Glucquat™ 125 humectant, derived from corn and other sources, promotes humectancy to the skin. A formulation by Lubrizol.
