Description

Nonyl Thioglucoside is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant and specialty chemical intermediate derived from glucose. This compound is valued for its unique combination of a hydrophilic sugar head and a hydrophobic alkyl chain, making it an effective and biodegradable surface-active agent. It is primarily utilized in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and agrochemical industries for applications requiring mild, non-toxic surfactants with excellent emulsifying and solubilizing properties.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Excipient: Used as a solubilizer, emulsifier, and penetration enhancer in topical and transdermal drug delivery formulations.
• Cosmetic Ingredient: Serves as a gentle, biodegradable surfactant and emulsifier in skincare, haircare, and personal care products.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in the solubilization and stabilization of membrane proteins and other hydrophobic biomolecules.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an adjuvant and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve efficacy and spreading.
• Industrial Surfactant: Functions in specialty cleaning formulations and as a dispersing agent where a mild, sugar-based surfactant is required.
• Nanotechnology: Utilized in the synthesis and functionalization of nanoparticles due to its ability to control surface properties.

Quality Control

Our Nonyl Thioglucoside is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR for identification, and specific tests for residual solvents and moisture content. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with customer specifications and relevant industry standards.

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 material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
