The New Surfactant Cocamide Methyl MEA (CMMEA)
Cocamide Methyl MEA (CMMEA) is an amidation product of coconut oil and methylethanolamine. It is a new type of non-ionic surfactant with excellent thickening properties and does not contain EU-restricted diethanolamine and nitrosamine. Widely used in shampoo, laundry detergent and other daily chemical products.
The Features of CMMEA
1. It exhibits excellent thickening performance in SLES/AOS/alcohol ether system or SLES/sulfonic acid/alcohol ether system, as well as various liquid washing products containing alcohol ether components;
2. It has good frost resistance, the product is not turbid or solidified above zero, and it is a fluid liquid;
3. Compared with traditional CDEA and CMEA, it has more excellent thickening, foaming and foam stabilization properties;
4. The viscosity in liquid detergent is less affected by temperature and ph value, and the viscosity changes smoothly.
CMMEA is widely used in liquid washing products such as shampoo, shower gel, laundry detergent, etc. It is especially recommended for laundry detergent products that are difficult to thicken. It is also used as emulsifier and preservative in tertiary oil recovery and metal processing.
