Properties
• Low viscosity aqueous solution (pumpable); active
matter app. 30 %.
• TEGO ® Betain L 7 is regarded as an amphoteric
surfactant; it is cold processible with anionic,
cationic and non-ionic surfactants.
• Good foaming properties, good foam quality
(finely porous and stable); quality of foam is not
influenced by hardness of water.
• Skin and mucous membrane compatibility of
common anionic surfactants, which strongly
reduce the quantity of cutanous fat and are
relatively aggressive towards skin and mucosa,
are improved by the addition of TEGO ® Betain L 7.
In hair and skin cleansing preparations
TEGO ® Betain L 7 can give conditioning effect
because of its substantivity.
• Biodegredable (98 % according to OECD-
Confirmatory-Test).
• A significant increase in viscosity is obtained, if
TEGO ® Betain L 7 is combined with various anionic
surfactants. Viscosities depend on the pH-value
of the formulations; maximum viscosity is
attained in the slightly acid pH-range.
