Description

D-Glucopyranose, Oligomeric, Stearyl Glycosides is a non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from renewable carbohydrate and fatty alcohol feedstocks. This compound is valued for its excellent skin compatibility, mildness, and ability to form stable, low-irritancy emulsions and vesicles. It is primarily sought after by formulators in the personal care, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries for creating high-performance, natural-origin products.

Application

• Primary Emulsifier in cosmetic creams, lotions, and sun care products for stable oil-in-water systems.
• Vesicle Formation for the encapsulation and delivery of active ingredients in advanced skincare and pharmaceutical formulations.
• Co-emulsifier & Stabilizer to enhance the texture and long-term stability of complex personal care emulsions.
• Skin Conditioning Agent that improves skin feel and provides moisturizing properties without irritation.
• Natural Origin Formulations as a key ingredient in "green" and eco-friendly cosmetic products.
• Hair Care Products as a conditioning agent and emulsifier in shampoos and conditioners.
