Alkyl Polyglucoside (APG 0810/0814/1214)

APG is a non-ionic surfactant. It is a new type of non-ionic surfactant directly synthesized from natural glucose and natural fatty alcohol in one step. It has the characteristics of ordinary non-ionic and anionic surfactants. It has high surface activity, good ecological safety and solubility. It is an internationally recognized “green” functional surfactant.

Product application

Alkylpolyglycosides (APG) are a class of surfactants derived from renewable resources such as coconut oil or palm kernel oil and glucose. They have gained popularity in the daily chemical industry due to their effectiveness, eco-friendliness, and mildness on the skin.
APG surfactants have various applications in personal care products. They are used as cleansers and foaming agents in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers. Their gentle and non-irritating nature makes them suitable for sensitive skin types. APG surfactants also contribute to the formation of rich and stable foam, enhancing the sensory experience during cleansing.
In addition to personal care products, APGs are utilized in household cleaning products. They possess excellent wetting and emulsifying properties, enabling effective removal of dirt, grease, and stains from surfaces. APG-based cleaners are known for their biodegradability and lower environmental impact compared to traditional surfactants.
Moreover, APGs find applications in dishwashing liquids, laundry detergents, and fabric softeners. Their ability to disperse and solubilize substances makes them efficient in breaking down greasy stains on dishes and clothes. They also aid in preventing re-deposition of dirt and improving the overall cleaning performance.
The mild and skin-friendly characteristics of APG surfactants make them suitable for use in baby care products as well. They are frequently found in baby shampoos, baths, and wipes, providing gentle cleansing without causing irritation or dryness.
In summary, Alkylpolyglycosides (APGs) are versatile and environmentally friendly surfactants widely used in daily chemical products. From personal care items to household cleaners, they contribute to effective cleaning, foaming, and emulsifying, while maintaining a mild and gentle experience for users.
