Description

D-Glucopyranose, Oligomeric, C12-14-Alkyl Glycosides is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant derived from renewable carbohydrate and fatty alcohol feedstocks. This compound is valued for its excellent biodegradability, mildness, and superior surface-active properties, making it a key ingredient in demanding formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors for creating high-performance, eco-friendly products.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: As a primary surfactant or co-surfactant in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and baby care products for its mildness and skin compatibility.
• Home Care & Detergents: Used in liquid dishwashing detergents, hard surface cleaners, and laundry detergents for effective grease cutting and foam stabilization.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: A key component in formulations for food processing plant sanitation, dairy cleaners, and vehicle wash systems.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Employed as a wetting agent, spreader, or emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance coverage and efficacy.
• Cosmetic & Toiletry Products: Functions as an emulsifier and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and other emulsion-based products.
• Technical Emulsions: Serves as an emulsifier in the preparation of polymer emulsions and other industrial processing aids.
