Alkyl polyglucoside / APG 1214 Instruction

ALKYL POLYGLUCOSIDE APGCH-1214 is with low irritation to skin,good compatibility,without negative effect.The foam is rich and delicate,with good stability and emulsifying properties,so it is suitable for the application in the high-end Personal Care products: facial cleanser.

Facial cleanser is a cleansing cosmetic with the purpose of removing dirt from the skin, refreshing the skin and helping to maintain the normal physiological state of the skin. When the facial cleanser cleans the skin, the object to be cleaned (ie, the substrate) is human skin, and the dirt adhering thereto is basically sebum and stratum corneum fragments and oxidative decomposition products (dirt), or a cosmetic product adhered thereto. the remains. These residual metabolites are unstable and can react with oxygen in the air, or from deposited molecules. When exposed to sunlight or bacteria on the skin, various physicochemical and biochemical reactions occur to form substances that may harm the skin. Thus, even for healthy skin, skin cleansing is a necessary process for skin care. In addition, for sensitive, or fragile skin, due to its characteristics, special cleaning and care are needed. 

The property of Alkyl Polyglucoside(APG)

Alkyl polyglucoside / APG 1214 is a nonionic surfactant made by one step technology, its raw material is renewable plant: natural fatty alcohol and glucose.Alkyl Polylgucoside (APG) is with low surface tension, good solubility,strong detergency, and high concentration of electrolyte, strong alkali resistance, good thickening effect,good compatibility, it can improve the effect when compound with other nonionic or ionic surfactants, moreover,it can improve performance significantly. When use it, products could with good and abundant foam, stable,exquisite,nontoxic, seldom stimulating, good compatible with skin, readily biodegradable.

Alkyl polyglucoside (APG) stored with long time in room temperature, there will be a samll amount of solid precipitation or appearance of turbidity, it caused by magnesium, but this turbidity has no negative effect, as adjust the pH value to below 9, the cloudy would be disappeared.

Note: the solid content and pH value could be adjusted as client requirement.

Alkyl Polyglucoside Application Field

Alkyl Polyglucoside series (PC&HC grade) are good with biological compatibility, it could be largely used in Personal Care and Home Care, like shampoo, cleansing cream, hand sanitizer, laundry detergent, body lotion,children bubble water, dish washing, kitchen cleaning agent, floor cleaning, toilet cleaner and so on. Alkyl polyglucoside also can be applied to glyphosate pesticide adjuvant, foaming agent for oil extract.Alkyl Polyglucoside (low foam/no foam) belongs to low carbon alcohol, good solubility and compatibility,the most important point is that the low/no foam APG could dissolve other insoluble matter, so it could be largely applied to high alkali system as surfactants, like hard surface cleaning industry, textile auxiliary, high temperature and alkali refining agent, steel plate cleaning agent, beer bottle cleaning agent.
