Description

1-Deoxy-1-[Methyl(1-Oxododecyl)Amino]-D-Glucitol is a specialized non-ionic surfactant derived from D-glucitol and lauric acid, functioning as an N-methyl-N-acyl glucamine derivative. Its molecular structure provides excellent surface activity, emulsification, and mild conditioning properties, making it a valuable ingredient for demanding formulations. This compound is primarily utilized in the personal care, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries where high-performance, skin-friendly surfactants are required.

Application

• Personal Care Cleansers: Used as a primary or co-surfactant in facial cleansers, shower gels, and shampoos for its mildness and rich foam.
• Cosmetic Emulsions: Acts as an effective emulsifier and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and sunscreens.
• Pharmaceutical Topicals: Employed in medicated creams and ointments as a non-irritating solubilizer and penetration enhancer.
• Household & I&I Cleaning: Formulated into high-performance, low-irritation dishwashing liquids and industrial cleaners.
• Specialty Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a key building block for synthesizing more complex sugar-based surfactants and amphoterics.
