Description

Tetradecyl D-Glucoside is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant derived from renewable glucose and fatty alcohol sources. This compound matters for formulators seeking a mild, biodegradable, and high-performance surfactant with excellent foaming and emulsifying properties. It is needed by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical industries for creating gentle cleansers, shampoos, and stable emulsion systems.

Application

• Primary surfactant in mild, sulfate-free personal care products such as shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers.
• Emulsifying agent in cosmetic and pharmaceutical creams, lotions, and ointments.
• Foam booster and stabilizer in liquid detergents and household cleaning formulations.
• Wetting and dispersing agent in agrochemical formulations like pesticides and herbicides.
• Component in specialty industrial cleaners requiring biodegradability and low toxicity.
• Stabilizer and solubilizer in fragrance and essential oil delivery systems.

Quality Control

Our Tetradecyl D-Glucoside is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity, composition, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, residual solvents, and physical properties are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
