In personal care /skin and hair care this coconut oil derived surfactant may be used with another surfactant, such as cocomidopropyl betaine or decyl glucoside to make a gentle high foam , high performance product.
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.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate can also be used as a base in extremely delicate detergents.
Disodium cocoamphodiacetate allows to make “frequent use” detergents and is compatible with all types of surfactants, anionic, amphoteric and non-ionic.

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 is a mild amphoteric surfactant.
The “ampho” part in the name indicates it’s amphoteric, meaning it carries a different charge in different pH levels.
If Disodium cocoamphodiacetate’s acidic (below 6), it behaves as a cationic surfactant that will be substantive to the skin, offering moisturizing and conditioning properties.
If Disodium cocoamphodiacetate’s alkaline (above 8), it behaves as an anionic surfactant with good foaming and detergency properties.
Used as a surfactant; it’s non-irritating to eyes and it’s very mild. At Bellatorra we combine it with decyl glucoside as it creates a very gentle cleanser that won’t strip much oil off the skin.
