Coconut Derivative
Coco Diethanolamide (CDE) is a non-ionic surfactant derived from coconut oil. It is a viscous, yellowish-amber liquid. It acts as the perfect partner to SLES in formulations. While SLES creates the foam, CDE stabilizes it, makes it creamy, and significantly boosts the viscosity (thickness) of the final product upon addition of salt.
Ruvon's CDE is manufactured using the 1:1 molar ratio (1 mole Fatty Acid : 1 mole Diethanolamine) method, ensuring high purity and low free amine content. This makes it milder on the skin compared to the 1:1.5 grades often found in the market.
Comparison of High Purity (1:1) vs Standard Commercial Grade.
| Parameter | High Purity (1:1) | Commercial (1:1.5) |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Clear Yellow Viscous Liquid | Dark Amber Liquid |
| Amide Content | 85% Min | 60% - 70% |
| Free Amine | Max 5% | Max 10% |
| Free Fatty Acid | Max 0.5% | Max 1.0% |
| pH (1% Solution) | 9.0 - 11.0 | 9.0 - 11.0 |
| Glycerine Content | ~ 9-10% | Variable |
Foam bubbles usually pop because gravity pulls the water down from the bubble wall.
If you use only SLES and Salt, you need a lot of Salt to thicken the product (which can dry out skin).
The Trick: Adding just 2% to 3% of CDE drastically shifts the "Salt Curve." You will achieve the same high thickness with much less Salt, resulting in a milder, more premium product.
