Description

Sucrose Heptalaurate is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant derived from sucrose and lauric acid. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, stabilizing, and solubilizing properties, making it a versatile functional ingredient. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and food industries for formulating stable, mild, and high-performance products.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary emulsifier and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and sunscreens, providing a smooth texture and enhancing product stability.
• Pharmaceutical Formulations: Used as a solubilizer and emulsifying agent in topical drug delivery systems, ointments, and creams.
• Food Industry: Functions as a food-grade emulsifier in certain food products, helping to blend ingredients that would otherwise separate.
• Industrial Applications: Serves as a biodegradable surfactant in specialty cleaning formulations and agrochemical emulsions.
• Research & Development: Utilized as a biochemical reagent and a model compound in surfactant and colloid science studies.

Quality Control

Our Sucrose Heptalaurate is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets precise specifications for industrial and specialty use. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, assay, and impurity profiles are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

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