Coconut diethanolamide is a non-ionic surfactant derived from coconut oil, widely used in various applications due to its low toxicity and biodegradability. It is effective in reducing surface tension and improving the solubility of substances in water. This surfactant has been applied in numerous industries, as well as in studies of membrane proteins, lipid bilayers, and surface properties. Furthermore, it has been used to investigate the effects of surfactants on the structure and function of proteins and membranes.
