Name lauramine oxide Description Lauramine oxide acts as a foam booster, emulsifier, and thickening agent in products such as shampoos, body washes, and detergents. Benefits Thickens, cleans, lathers. Considerations • Nitrosamine Concerns
Can form carcinogenic nitrosamines under certain conditions.
• Absorbed through the Skin
Animal studies found 40% of the lauramine oxide applied to skin was absorbed systemically.
• Environmental Concerns
Considered to be highly toxic to aquatic systems with long-lasting effects.
• Eye Irritation
High concentrations can cause eye irritation or damage.
• Skin Irritation
Can cause skin irritation at higher amounts.
• Acute Toxicity
Harmful if swallowed in higher amounts. Synonyms Lauryldimethylamine oxide
