Betaine Monohydrate
Betaine monohydrate is an excellent humectant that can improve themoisturizing capacity of skin and hair care products. Betaine monohydrate also reduces theirritation caused by surfactants and alcohol, improves foam volume stability,and enhances the sensory properties of skin and oral care formulations. Since betaine monohydrate contains onemolecule of water of crystallization, it is less hygroscopic than betaineanhydrous and has better handling properties.
