Question

Which one gives more foam between `Coco Foam (Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine)` and `Baby Foam (Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate)`? And does `Coco Foam` produce fine or large bubbles?

Answer

Comparing Coco Foam and Baby Foam for Foam Production

Based on the product descriptions:

  • Coco-Foam-50™ (Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine) is a detergent that specifically focuses on creating lather or foam in formulations. It is known for its ability to create foam well and is often used with other detergents to boost foaming.
  • BabyFoam™ (Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate) is a gentle detergent that can be used as a secondary detergent in formulas requiring high foam. The description also suggests using it together with Coco-Foam™ for even more bubbles and stable foam.

Comparing the two, Coco-Foam-50™ is primarily highlighted for its foaming ability and is likely to provide more foam or be better at generating foam, especially when used in combination with other surfactants.

Regarding the bubble size for Coco-Foam-50™, the description mentions it creates bubbles and contributes to stable foam when used with other ingredients like BabyFoam™. While it doesn't explicitly state the bubble size, foaming agents that create stable foam typically produce finer, richer bubbles rather than large, airy ones.
