Description

1,2-Di-o-Tetradecyl-3-o-(Glucopyranosyl)Glycerol is a specialized synthetic glycolipid, a non-ionic surfactant derived from glucose and glycerol. This compound is valued for its unique amphiphilic structure, which provides excellent emulsifying, stabilizing, and moisturizing properties. It is primarily utilized by formulators in the personal care, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries seeking high-performance, skin-compatible ingredients for advanced skincare and delivery systems.

Application

• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a high-efficiency emulsifier and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and serums.
• Skin Moisturizers & Emollients: Enhances skin hydration and barrier function due to its lipid-like structure.
• Lipid-based Drug Delivery Systems: Used as a biocompatible excipient in nanoemulsions and liposomes for improved drug solubility and bioavailability.
• Biomimetic Membrane Research: Serves as a synthetic glycolipid component in model membrane studies.
• Specialty Surfactants: Employed in niche applications requiring mild, sugar-based surfactants with specific chain lengths.
