Expert's answer
CFAS is an alcohol sulfate produced from the sulfation of broad-cut natural coco-fatty alcohol. Coco fatty alcohol sulfate and CFAS are the same products. Coco fatty alcohol sulfate made from coconut oil as an attempt to make it look like a naturally forming product. Lauryl alcohols can be derived from either petroleum or coconut oil. CFAS is foaming & cleansing agents which is what soap does. It is a substitute to oil in creating soap.
