Coacervating Behavior of Amino Acid Anionic and Amphoteric Mixed Micelle-Polymer

In this paper, coacervates were formed with mixed micelles consisting of the anionic amino acid surfactant sodium lauroylsarcosinate (NLS) and amphoteric surfactant cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) in combination with cationic guar gum. Based on personal care formulation studies, coacervates were prepared by diluting a concentrated system with water to better suit the product application process. The phase behavior during dilution was revealed by turbidity, which was influenced by the mixed micelle ratio (
