Description

C10 E8 CAS NO 24233-81-6 is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant belonging to the alkyl polyglucoside (APG) family, specifically a decyl glucoside with an average of 8 glucose units. This compound is valued for its excellent biodegradability, mildness, and superior surface-active properties derived from renewable plant-based feedstocks. It is an essential ingredient for formulators in the personal care, home care, and agrochemical industries seeking effective, eco-friendly, and skin-compatible surfactants.

Application

• Personal Care Products: Primary surfactant or co-surfactant in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and baby care products due to its exceptional mildness and foam quality.
• Household & Industrial Cleaners: Key component in liquid dish soaps, all-purpose cleaners, and hard surface cleaners for its effective grease-cutting and low irritation profile.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as a wetting agent, dispersant, and adjuvant in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading and efficacy.
• Industrial Processes: Acts as an emulsifier and stabilizer in emulsion polymerization and other chemical synthesis processes.
• Institutional & Commercial Cleaning: Formulated into professional-grade detergents for food service, hospitality, and healthcare where safety and performance are critical.

Quality Control

Our C10 E8 is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high performance. Quality is verified through comprehensive testing including assay, residual alcohol content, pH, and color. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting compliance with relevant specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider maintaining under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to preserve product integrity. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
