A soap made from rapeseed oil fatty acids.
What it is
Sodium rapeseedate is the mixture of sodium salts of the fatty acids of rapeseed oil, in other words a rapeseed oil soap. CosIng lists it as a cleansing and emulsifying surfactant and a viscosity-controlling agent.
Where it is used
Found mainly in bar soaps and other soap-based cleansers.
Limits of interpretation
The INCI list shows which ingredients are present, not how much of each. Above 1%, ingredients are listed in descending order of weight; below 1% the order is free.
In a soap ingredient list it indicates that rapeseed oil was saponified with a sodium base; the label does not show how much unsaponified oil remains.
