Description

Decyl D-Glucoside is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant derived from renewable plant-based glucose and fatty alcohol. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties combined with exceptional mildness and biodegradability. It serves as a key ingredient for formulators in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking effective, sustainable, and skin-friendly alternatives to traditional surfactants.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Primary surfactant in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and baby care products for its mildness and skin compatibility.
• Home & Institutional Cleaning: Core component in high-performance, eco-friendly dishwashing liquids, all-purpose cleaners, and hard surface cleaners.
• Cosmetic & Toiletry Products: Used in makeup removers, micellar waters, and sensitive skin formulations due to its non-irritating nature.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Acts as a wetting agent, spreader, or penetrant in pesticide and fertilizer formulations.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Employed in formulations for food processing plants, dairies, and breweries where mild yet effective cleaning is required.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Functions as a wetting agent, emulsifier, or detergent in various processing baths.
