Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI) is a mild, high-performance surfactant derived from coconut oil, ideal for gentle cleansing formulations. Known as “baby foam,” it creates a creamy lather without stripping the skin of its natural moisture. SCI is widely used in shampoo bars, facial cleansers, body washes, and other skin-friendly personal care products. Its gentle, non-irritating nature makes it suitable for sensitive skin and eco-conscious formulations.

Benefits:

1. Â Derived from natural coconut fatty acids
2. Â Produces rich, luxurious, creamy foam
3.  Mild and non-drying – ideal for sensitive skin
4. Â Biodegradable & sulphate-free alternative
5. Â Suitable for vegan and eco-friendly formulations

How to Use:

• Melting: Blend SCI flakes or powder into your oil or water phase using gentle heat (double boiler recommended).
• Formulation: Combine with other surfactants or emulsifiers as needed.
• Processing: Stir until fully dissolved and integrated. Avoid overheating.
• Final Product: Pour into molds (for bars) or mix into liquids (for gels/washes).
