Description

Decyl Glucoside is a high-performance, non-ionic surfactant derived from renewable plant-based glucose and fatty alcohols. This versatile compound is prized for its excellent foaming, wetting, and cleansing properties combined with exceptional mildness and biodegradability. It is a critical ingredient for formulators seeking effective, eco-friendly, and skin-compatible solutions. Key industries that rely on this surfactant include personal care, home care, agrochemicals, and industrial cleaning.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Primary surfactant in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and baby care products due to its mildness and skin-friendly profile.
• Household & Institutional Cleaning: Core component in eco-friendly dishwashing liquids, all-purpose cleaners, and surface cleaners, offering strong degreasing power.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as a wetting agent, spreader, and adjuvant in pesticides and herbicides to enhance coverage and efficacy.
• Industrial & Technical Cleaners: Effective in formulations for hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and textile processing aids.
• Green Chemistry & Bio-based Products: A cornerstone ingredient for formulators developing sustainable, readily biodegradable, and non-toxic product lines.
