Description

Cocoat sodium is made from coconut oil. It is produced by saponification, which is the process of breaking down fat by combining it with lye to produce soap. Cocoat sodium acts as a surfactant, helping to remove dirt, oil, and other contaminants. It is also less abrasive than other types of alkaline metals. In fact, it is so often used in cleaning agents due to its non-toxic and completely natural properties.
