Disodium cocoamphodiacetate (DSCADA) is a synthetic amphoteric surfactant routinely used in personal care products.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate is one of the mildest amphoteric surfactants of its class.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate is easy to use product is great in many applications, including personal care and industrial applications.
In personal care formulations like bubble baths, shampoos, & body cleansers, Disodium cocoamphodiacetate makes a moderate lather, cleans without defatting the skin, giving a rich, conditioning effect.
Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate is stable over a wide pH range which makes it ideal for many personal care, household, and industrial applications.
In addition to personal care products, Disodium cocoamphodiacetate is useful for the formulation of products used around food preparation areas, and high alkaline hard surface cleaners.
Main Uses of Disodium cocoamphodiacetate:
-Shampoos & Hand Soap (5% -25%)
-Body Wash (5%-30%)
-Bubble Bath (10%-30%)
-Premoistened Wipes (1%-4%)
-Hard Surface Cleaners (1%-3%)
-Compatible with anionic, non-ionic and most cationic systems.
In personal care /skin and hair care Disodium cocoamphodiacetate derived surfactant may be used with another surfactant, such as cocomidopropyl betaine or decyl glucoside to make a gentle high foam , high performance product.
Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate is used as a secondary surfactant to boost foam and viscosity, and as a very gentle cleanser for sensitive skin.
Combined with Decyl glucoside as this combination creates a very gentle cleanser that won’t strip much oil off skin.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate (DSCADA) the disodium salt of a coconut fatty acid amide, is a synthetic, topically compatible, amphoteric imidazolium compound, which acts as a surfactant (surfactant), cleansing, hair conditioning and skin caring.

Disodium cocoamphodiacetate also increase foaming capacity or stabilize foams.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate enhances the appearance and feel of hair, by increasing hair body, suppleness, or sheen, or by improving the texture of hair that has been damaged physically or by chemical treatment.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate is a mild amphoteric surfactant.
The “ampho” part in the name indicates Disodium cocoamphodiacetate’s amphoteric, meaning Disodium cocoamphodiacetate carries a different charge in different pH levels.
If Disodium cocoamphodiacetate’s acidic, Disodium cocoamphodiacetate behaves as a cationic surfactant that will be substantive to the skin, offering moisturizing and conditioning properties.
If Disodium cocoamphodiacetate’s alkaline, Disodium cocoamphodiacetate behaves as an anionic surfactant with good foaming and detergency properties.

Biodegradation of an amphoteric surfactant commonly used in personal care products, disodium cocoamphodiacetate (DSCADA), was evaluated.
Results from respirometry experiments indicated that high levels of DSCADA (>216 mg/L) may be toxic to bacteria in wastewater treatment processes.
Limited biodegradation, with 50% dissolved organic carbon (DOC) removal and 80% chemical oxygen demand removal was observed in batch assays, while complete removal of the parent compound, DSCADA, was noted.
Oxygen biosensors were used to evaluate biodegradability of the metabolites present in the batch samples.
Additional aerobic microbial activity was not detected in these samples, even with a residual DOC of approximately 45 mg/L.
Results from this research indicate that biodegradability of DSCADA is limited and recalcitrant metabolites may be formed.
Because DSCADA is a commonly used surfactant and is present in domestic and industrial wastewater, the associated risk posed by residual compounds should be carefully evaluated.

Most contain sodium trideceth sulfate.
Alternatively, baby shampoo may be formulated using other classes of surfactants, most notably non-ionics which are much milder than any charged anionics used.
Ideally, in Baby Shampoos the conventionally used anionic surfactant i.e. Sodium Laureth Sulfate is used at 10 to 15% levels and the major surfactant component is formed by Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate by using it at 20 to 25% levels.
Other ingredients in a Baby Shampoo may include Cocoamidopropyl betaine.
Glycerine, PEG 150 Distearates, Preservatives, Humectants & Conditioning Agents.
Most of the Leading Baby Shampoos are formulated without addition of Colors.
As observed, they are light amber in appearance which is the natural color of the formulation.
In case, where absolute color free shampoo is desired, another equivalent surfactant Disodium lauroamphoacetate is used.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate comes in very light yellowish clear liquid.
Hygiene measures: Emergency equipment nearby and immediately accessible, with instructions for use.
Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation location.
Use clean, well-maintained personal protection equipment.
Store the personal protection equipment in a clean location away from the work area.
Contaminated work clothing should not be allowed out of the workplace.
Before re-use, thoroughly clean personal protection equipment.
Wash hands before breaks and immediately after handling the product.

Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate is also used in Premium quality of Shampoos & Face Wash. Most of the Anionic surfactants such as Sodium laureth Sulfate, Ammonium Laureth Sulfate, Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinates contains sulfate contents which is harsh in nature. These surfactants cause damage to hair strands & reduce the moisturisation properties of the shampoo. Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate being amphoteric and having no sulfate content if when used in combination with these anionic surfactants provides excellent results further it also enhances the moisturisation & conditioning properties of the finished shampoo. Hence, a range of Mild wash & bath products can be formulated with this product such as Baby Bath, Shower Gel, Face Wash, Liquid Hand Wash, 2 in 1 Shampoo Conditioners etc. The Product is also stable & compatible to various other ingredients which are conventionally used in Shampoos.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate is produced by some renowned organizations which are into complete varieties of surfactants for the cosmetic Industries.
Safety Measures/Side Effects:
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has assessed this ingredient as non-toxic and non-irritating, and they, along with the EU Cosmetics Directive, have determined it as safe to use in OTC personal care products.
More safety Information:
CIR Safety Review: Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, Sodium Cocoamphopropionate and Disodium Cocoamphodipropionate were nontoxic in acute oral toxicity studies.
Safety Information:
The safety of these ingredients has been assessed by the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel.
The CIR Expert Panel evaluated the scientific data and concluded that Sodium Cocoamphoacetate, Sodium Cocoamphopropionate, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, and Disodium Cocoamphodipropionate were safe as cosmetic ingredients in the present practices of use.
In 2006, as part of the scheduled re-evaluation of ingredients, the CIR Expert Panel considered available new data on these four ingredients, and reaffirmed the above conclusion.
