Nonionic surfactant Alkylpolyglucoside C8 10

Product Overview

Description

Nonionic surfactant - Alkylpolyglucoside C8-10 is called new generation environmentally friendly surfactants. They have not been produced on the commercial scale until the nineties in the world. APGs are classified as nonionic surfactants. The feedstock of APG is based on fatty alcohol and glucose, which are obtained from renewable native resources. Thus, APGs are completely biodegradable. Because of their non-toxicity, non-irritation and many excellent surface-active performances. The APGs are widely used in the fields of detergents, cosmetics, food and medicines.

APG0810 is a nonionic surfactant which is made from natural raw materials, natural alcohols and glucose derived from plants. Its superior properties include: detergency, wetting, dispersing and surface tension reduction, compatibility, especially foaming property. It also exhibits excellent alkaline and electrolyte resistance and can solubilize other ingredients.

APG0810 is low toxic, low irritating to skin and readily biodegradable. So it can be widely used in personal care products and household detergents: day cream, night cream, body cream & lotion, shampoo and hand cream, etc.

APG0810 is also a good choice for industrial and institutional (I&I) cleaners, especially for hard surface cleaning and processing for its high alkaline stability and hydrotroping ability.

APG0810 can be formulated in bubble water as a foam agent.

Due to the presence of magnesium oxide (max. 100ppm) and the high pH value, turbidity, which has no negative effects on performance, may occur when the product is stored at room temperature. When the pH value is adjusted to neutral, its turbidity disappears.

There may be sedimentation depending on storage time. In this case, the product should be heated and stirred until uniform before use.
