Betaine

Product description

Aako Betaine Anhydrous is a white crystalline powder, which has excellent water binding and retention characteristics. This makes it very suitable as humectant and moisturizer for the skin.

Betaine can also increase the solubility in water of a variety of active compounds. In this way it is a non-hazardous water soluble co-solvent or solubilizer replacing or complement products like glycol ethers.

In hair products Betaine acts as an anti-static and hair conditioning product. In surfactant solutions, betaine acts as a foam modifier and increases the foam volume and stability of SLES and amphoterics and improves the after-feel of conditioners.

Betaine is also a useful ingredient in dental products, thanks to its capability of reducing the irritancy of surfactants and for its moisturising effects on mucous membranes.

Storage:

Stored under dry conditions in tightly closed dry containers. Shelf life of 2 years under appropriate conditions of storage.
