Amphoteric surfactants are a type of surfactant that contains both positive and negative charges within the same molecule. They are known for their versatility and mildness, making them suitable for use in a variety of applications, including personal care products, detergents, and industrial cleaners.
According to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), amphoteric surfactants are a type of surfactant that can act as either a cationic or anionic surfactant depending on the pH of the solution. In simpler terms, they can switch their charge depending on the environment they are in. This dual behaviour allows them to be effective in a wide range of applications and environments. They have various uses as detergents, wetting agents, emulsifiers, foaming agents, anti-static agents, stabilizers, and dispersants in personal care, home care, industrial & institutional (I&I) cleaning, oilfield chemicals, agrochemicals, and other applications.
