"Sodium" refers to the element sodium; "cocoate" fatty acids from coconut oil. Sodium cocoate is the sodium salt of coconut fatty acids. Sodium cocoate is used in cosmetic formulations. The substance acts as an emulsifier (surface-active substance used in cosmetic products as an additive to combine two immiscible liquids - e.g. oil and water - into an emulsion) and as a surfactant (washing-active substance; improves the even distribution of the products during application).
