Lauryl Amine Oxide

Lauryl Amine Oxide (LAO) is a versatile coconut-derived surfactant with 30–32% active content, widely used in household cleaning, personal care and cosmetic formulations. Also known as Lauramine Oxide, it combines cleansing, foaming, wetting and emulsifying properties, making it a useful multifunctional ingredient for a wide range of formulations.

LAO is particularly valued for its ability to generate rich and stable foam while supporting effective cleansing. It can be used in liquid detergents, shampoos, conditioners, soaps, bubble baths and other personal care products where enhanced foam and cleaning performance are required.

As a wetting agent, Lauryl Amine Oxide helps formulations spread more easily across surfaces and skin. Its emulsifying properties can also help maintain formulation consistency and reduce separation between ingredients.
