Question

Clarification on the compatibility of `CTAC (Cetrimonium Chloride)` with `Anionic surfactant` in shampoo and soap formulas, specifically asking if other foaming agents besides `Coco Foam (Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine)` can be used.

Answer

Based on the staff's correction, the information stating that CTAC cannot be used with anionic surfactants was incorrect. CTAC (Cetrimonium Chloride) is compatible with anionic surfactants.

Therefore, you are not limited to using only Coco Foam (Cocamidopropyl Hydroxysultaine) as a foaming agent in shampoo or soap formulas containing CTAC. You can use other foaming agents, including anionic surfactants, in your formulations.
