  N-nitroso Compound

  Posted by Hellorin on September 26, 2022 at 7:41 am

  Hello guys. 

  Will COCOAMIDE DEA (Cas 68603-42-9) and SODIUM COCOYL ALANINATE (cas 90170-45-9) form N-nitroso compound?
  I’m afraid they will form N-nitroso compound because SODIUM COCOYL ALANINATE is part of amino acid alkyl amides.

  Thank you for your help.

  it is possible for cocamide DEA to form an N-nitrosamine, but only if your formula contains nitrite salts, organic nitrites or bronopol; without any of those ingredients, it won’t happen at all
