Coco Glucoside: gentle, creamy lather and respects the skin
What is Coco Glucoside?
Coco glucoside (141464-42-8, 68515-73-1 & 110615-47-9) is a nonionic surfactant of plant origin. It belongs to a generation of surfactants called Alkyl polyglucosides (APGs), whose raw materials are primarily glucose and C8/C14 fatty alcohols.
It is a gentle and biodegradable cleaning agent, ideal for natural and organic formulations.
Coco Glucoside has good foaming power, promoting the dispersion of aqueous and oily substances. It generates a richer and creamier foam than other APGs.
Unlike the more aggressive surfactants found in conventional products (such as sodium laureth sulfate), Coco Glucoside cleanses without stripping, thus preserving the skin's hydrolipidic film.
Coco Glucoside, a versatile natural surfactant, is used in various sectors such as cosmetics, detergents, the chemical industry and animal care.
