Cocamides, are amides that are obtained from coconut fatty acids (see also palmamides). Cocamides are used in cosmetic products with different physical properties. Cocamides act as emulsifiers, support the formation of emulsions and improve the stability and shelf life of emulsions. Furthermore, the substance mixture acts as a surfactant and viscosity regulator.
