Amidoamines are a class of chemical compounds that are formed from fatty acids and amines. They are used as intermediates in the synthesis of surfactants, such as cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), some of which are used in personal care products including soaps, shampoos, and cosmetics. Amidoamines can also serve as curing agents for epoxy resins. They are also used as oil well drilling fluids and also as corrosion inhibitors.

CAPB is a surfactant that comes from coconut oil. Surfactants are substances that lift oil and grease, allowing for easier removal. Although CAPB poses a low risk of skin irritation, it is a safe ingredient for most people. There is concern that it may be harmful to the environment, though.

• CAPB is a surfactant and foam enhancer that is present in many personal care products. It combines a mixture of fatty acids that come from coconut oil with propylene glycol, which is a synthetic compound.

• Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) is a naturally-derived product of coconut oil, found as a viscous liquid.

• Cocamidopropyl betaine is most often used in personal care products as a cleansing ingredient, due to its ‘surfactant’ property – like soap, it breaks the surface tension of water, allowing dirt to rinse away. During manufacturing, it is blended with other elements such as dimethylaminopropylamine (DMAPA) and amidoamine (AA).

• Alternative names as listed by the Environmental Working Group, include:

  •  1-Propanaminium, N-(carboxymethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-3-((1-oxococonut) amino)-, hydroxide, inner salt

  •  N-(2-Aminoethyl)-N-(2-(2-carboxyethoxy)ethyl) beta-alanine, norcoco acyl derivs., disodium salts

  •  N-(Carboxymethyl)-N,N-dimethyl-3-((1-oxococonut)amino)-1-propanaminium hydroxide, inner salt

  •  Cocamidopropyl dimethyl glycine

  •  Cocoamphocarboxypropionate

  •  Quaternary ammonium compounds, (carboxymethyl)(3cocoamidopropyl) dimethyl, hydroxides, inner salts

  •  Beta-Alanine, N-(2-aminoethyl)-N-(2-(2-carboxyethoxy)ethyl)-, norcoco acyl derivs., disodium salts

  •  Cocoamphodiproprionate

  •  Cocoyl amide propylbetaine

  •  Disodium cocoamphodipropionate Mirataine CB.

• Cocamidopropyl betaine is used in personal care products like shampoos, hand soaps, and toothpastes, and in cosmetics as an emulsifying agent and thickener. It is also used in conditioners to reduce static cling.

Decyl Glucoside is a gentle, non-ionic surfactant derived from natural sources like corn glucose and coconut oil. Known for its mild cleansing properties and excellent skin compatibility, it’s commonly used in sulfate-free shampoos, facial cleansers, body washes, baby products, and other personal care formulations. It creates a rich, stable lather without stripping moisture—making it ideal for sensitive skin.

Biodegradable and non-irritating, Decyl Glucoside is a go-to ingredient for formulators looking to develop eco-friendly and skin-friendly products. Bulk Apothecary offers high-purity Decyl Glucoside in wholesale quantities, perfect for manufacturers committed to clean and sustainable beauty.

Ethyl acrylate isn't directly from coconut, but coconut oil can be used to make modified resins (alkyd resins) that then copolymerize with ethyl acrylate, adding flexibility and water resistance to coatings, adhesives, and textiles, though ethyl acrylate itself is a synthetic chemical often noted as a "coconut-free" ingredient for allergy concerns. While some coconut-derived ingredients offer skin/hair benefits, ethyl acrylate provides industrial performance but requires careful handling due to its reactivity and allergy potential.

An Ethyleneurea, Melamine Formaldehyde (EUMF) mix is a resin used in textiles (wash-and-wear finishes), leather, adhesives, and lacquers, known for durability and wrinkle resistance, but it's also a common contact allergen, often linked to formaldehyde release, and while researchers explore bio-based alternatives like using coconut husk for lignin-based resins, the standard EUMF mix itself isn't directly "derived from coconut" but is a synthetic resin requiring careful label reading for allergic individuals.

Glyceryl monothioglycolate (GMTG) isn't directly "derived from coconut," but its synthesis uses glycerin, which can come from coconut oil, combined with thioglycolic acid; it's a key reducing agent in "acid" permanent wave solutions, known to cause allergic contact dermatitis in some hairdressers and clients, even months after use, so avoiding products containing it is important for sensitive individuals,

Lauryl polyglucose (Lauryl Glucoside), a mild surfactant, is derived from plant-based sources: glucose from corn sugar and fatty alcohols from coconut or palm kernel oil, combining renewable resources for use in gentle cleansers.  

Information from: https://www.specialchem.com/cosmetics/inci-ingredients/lauryl-glucoside 

Propylene glycol (PG) can be derived from coconut oil, offering a plant-based alternative to the petrochemical version, often found in cosmetics as esters like Propylene Glycol Cocoate or in blends with PEG (Polyethylene Glycol) for emulsifying and conditioning effects, providing moisture and smoothness to skin and hair. While typically synthetic, modern green chemistry allows for PG from vegetable oils, including coconut, or even distilled glycerin, making it suitable for natural formulations.  

Where is it: Textile Dye Mix [B] is a mix of chemical dyes found in non-oxidative hair dye formulations perfumes, fabric coloring, plastic coloring, clothing, carpet, textiles, fireworks, diapers, polyester and nylon.
