How we scored it
Coco fatty acyl (coconut) + hydrolyzed soy protein (plant, natural) + Na — all natural building blocks → 1.0.
What counts. ISO 16128-2 scores the atoms that remain in the final ingredient. Reagents, solvents, catalysts and protecting groups used during manufacture leave no mass behind and are not counted.
Where it comes from
Soy protein is hydrolysed to peptides, acylated with coconut fatty acid, and neutralised with sodium hydroxide. No petrochemical route is used.
In plain English
A gentle cleansing ingredient made from coconut oil fatty acids combined with proteins from soybeans. Used in shampoos and washes to clean while conditioning hair and skin.
CosIng definition: Protein hydrolyzates, soy, coco-acyl derivatives, sodium salts
