Structured surfactant use in products
Hi, does anyone know of any shampoos using Rhodia’s structured surfactant system?

I’m interested in getting a ‘feel’ for them.
Thank you!,

I have used Miracare SLB in my last job, and my view is that it’s just a blend of common surfactants sold with some jargon to justify a relatively high price tag
Miracare SLB used to be the kiss of death for any NPD project in my last job - it grossly inflated the cost of product and made it way too expensive to sell to any customers

The declared LOI is: Water, Sodium Trideceth Sulfate, Sodium Lauroamphoacetate, Cocamide MEA
Knowing that, there is no need to pay their high prices for a mixture of common surfactants

Interesting, thanks for the comments.

You can try using the Iselux SLC blend from Innospec. You can produce a nice product with upwards of 20% oils.

As with Miracare SLB, Iselux SLV is merely a blend of quite common surfactants being sold at an inflated price.
LOI:
Water (and) Sodium Lauroyl Methyl Isethionate (and) Sodium Lauroamphoacetate (and) Cocamide MIPA
