Abstract

Today Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB) is the most important secondary surfactant used in personal care and household products. Even the most modern CAPB-types still contain more water than active matter. Water which needs to be heated in the manufacturing process, which needs to be transported, and needs to be stored in storage tanks. The high water content not only contributes to the cost of production and logistics, but is also not favorable with respect to sustainability. Continuous research in the field of betaines has lead to another break-through in CAPB quality with a product containing approximately 47% active matter and less than 43% water. Thus, savings in energy consumption and shipping volume of more than 36% can be achieved as compared to the common 30% CAPB quality. The typically desired surfactant properties, the positive effects on foam and rheology could be maintained. Moreover, further improvements in quality and even additional skin care effects such as enhanced skin moisturization could be achieved.

Kurzfassung

Cocoamidopropylbetain (CAPB) ist das zur Zeit wichtigste Sekundärtensid in Körperpflege- und Haushaltsprodukten. Jedoch enthalten auch die modernsten CAPB-Typen noch immer mehr Wasser als Aktivsubstanz. Wasser, das im Herstellungsprozess erhitzt, transportiert und in Vorratsbehältern gelagert werden muss. Der hohe Wassergehalt erhöht aber nicht nur die Produktions- und Logistikkosten, sondern ist außerdem im Sinne der Nachhaltigkeit nicht wünschenswert. Kontinuierliche Forschung auf dem Gebiet der Betaine hat einen neuen Durchbruch bezüglich der CAPB-Qualität ermöglicht und zu einem Produkt geführt, das circa 47% Aktivsubstanz und weniger als 43% Wasser enthält. Dadurch lassen sich Einsparungen im Energieverbrauch und im Transportvolumen von mehr als 36% verglichen mit der üblichen 30%igen CAPB-Qualität erreichen. Die typischen erwünschten Eigenschaften eines Tensids, der positive Einfluss auf Schaum und Rheologie konnten beibehalten werden. Darüber hinaus wurden weitere Verbesserungen der Produktqualität und sogar zusätzliche Effekte im Bereich der Hautpflege erzielt, wie z.B. eine gesteigerte Hautfeuchtigkeit.

Dr. rer. nat. Sascha Herrwerth was born in 1972 in Hamburg, Germany. He studied chemistry at the Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg, Germany and at the University of Bristol, UK. He obtained his Ph.D. in Heidelberg under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Michael Grunze in 2002 for working on “Oligoether terminated self-assembled monolayers on gold and silver”. In 2003 he joined Evonik Goldschmidt GmbH (formerly Degussa Goldschmidt GmbH), Essen, Germany where he was leading synthetic groups in the research and the development department. Since 2007 he is heading the Applied Technology Rinse-Off group in the Business Line “Personal Care”.

Dr. rer. nat. Holger I. Leidreiter, born 1960, studied Physical Chemistry at University of Göttingen, Germany. Since finalization of his PhD thesis in 1978, he worked at Evonik Goldschmidt in technical service and in the development of raw material compounds and evaluation of product profiles for personal care applications. Since 1994 he is member of the task group “Hair Care” within DGK, the German Society of Scientific and Applied Cosmetics).

Dr. rer. nat. Hans Henning Wenk was born in 1973 in Munich. He studied chemistry until 1997 and finished his Ph.D. thesis at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum in 2002. In 2002 he joined R&D of Degussa's Food Ingredients unit in Freising. Since 2005 he works for Evonik Goldschmidt GmbH (formerly Degussa Goldschmidt GmbH) in Essen, developing oleochemical based ingredients for care applications.

Dr. rer. nat. Mike Farwick graduated in Biology from University of Düsseldorf, Germany. He earned his Ph.D. degree in Molecular Biology. After this Mike joined Evonik Industries, formerly known as Degussa AG. He has started in the field of fermentative amino acid production for the Business Unit “Feed Additives”. There he was responsible for functional genome analysis including DNA-Chips, proteomics and bioinformatics. From there he moved to a position as R&D Manager for Active Ingredients in the business line Personal Care. Since 2006 Mike is the Head of the R&D department “Active Ingredients”.

Dr. rer. nat. Isabella Ulrich-Brehm, born 1973, studied chemistry at the University of Mainz, Germany and the Cornell University, USA. After concluding her studies in 2002 she joined the former Degussa, now Evonik Industries, as R&D Manager and addressed the synthesis and exploration of organomodified silicones. In March 2006 she started to be engaged in Release Coating Systems and since May 2008 she has been working as Technical Manager in the Personal Care Department of Evonik Industries.

Dr. rer. nat. Burghard Grüning studied Organic Chemistry at the TU Braunschweig. After an engagement at the TU Berlin he joined Th. Goldschmidt, nowadays a part of Evonik Industries AG, in 1980. In his career he took positions in the research and development areas of silicones, inorganic and organic interfacially active derivatives. Since 2006 Burghard Grüning is directing the department Applied Technology Personal Care within the Evonik Business Unit Consumer Specialties. His work resulted in numerous publications and patents predominantly in the fields of organo-modified silicones, emulsifiers, betaines, biotechnology, and cosmetic formulations.
