Published Date: April 2025

Depending on the pH of the solution, surface-active compounds called amphoteric surfactants can carry both positive and negative charges, making them highly versatile in a range of formulations. The demand for mild, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly ingredients in household and personal care products is driving the market for amphoteric surfactants as consumers become more ecologically conscious. The increasing use of amphoteric surfactants in institutional and industrial cleaning applications is another significant driver propelling the global market share. Growing middle-class earnings, rapid urbanization, and increased cleanliness consciousness all support the market expansion for amphoteric surfactants. Nonetheless, barriers such as high Homecare expenses and competition from conventional surfactants may restrict market growth.

Report Analysis:

Properties of Amphoteric Surfactants:

Low toxicity and low irritation to skin and eyes
Excellent resistance to hard water and high electrolyte resistance, even in seawater can be effectively applied
Good biodegradability
Softness and antistatic properties;
Certain bactericidal and antifungal properties
Good emulsification and dispersion;
It can be compatible with almost all other types of surfactants, and generally has a synergistic effect
It can be adsorbed on the surface of charged substances without forming a thin hydrophobic layer, so it has good wetting and foaming properties
