Abstract
Betaine/cocoamide complexes are produced by providing an aqueous solution of a cocoamide selected from the group comprising coconut oil fatty amides and an alkaloid selected from the group consisting of betaines and emulsifying said aqueous solution to form the betaine/cocoamide complexes. Surfactant compositions are produced by combining the betaine/cocoamide complexes with a surfactant. The betaine/cocoamide complexes provide improved lather and conditioning properties and lower cloud/clear points to the compositions produced.
