Decyl Glucoside (32 Oz / 946 mL) Mild Natural Surfactant for All Hair Types

Decyl Glucoside, a type of alkyl polyglucoside, is a cloudy liquid derived from palm kernel oils, corn sugars, and/or coconut oil, often used as a plant-based surfactant in place of sulfates like SLS and SLES. With a CAS Number of 68515-73-1 and a Chemical Formula of C16H32O6, this mild and non-toxic agent can be found in hundreds of products, including shampoo, facial cleansers, body wash, hand soap, laundry detergent, and makeup remover.

As a non-ionic surfactant, Decyl Glucoside offers excellent foaming capacity and good dermatological compatibility, making it suitable for use as a base surfactant or a co-surfactant in cosmetic surfactant cleansing preparations. Its properties as a surfactant allow it to remove oils and dirt from formulations by eliminating the surface tension between two liquids.

Decyl Glucoside's versatility extends to its use in skincare and personal care products, such as facial cleansers and liquid body washes, where its mild and non-toxic nature makes it a safe choice. Additionally, Decyl Glucoside possesses excellent moisturizing and degreasing properties, and it dissolves quickly.

For external use only, Decyl Glucoside is a valuable ingredient in a wide range of consumer products, offering a plant-based alternative to traditional surfactants while providing effective cleansing and conditioning performance.
