Decyl Glucoside – 1KG – Premium Mild Non-Ionic Surfactant for Sulfate-Free Cleansers – Naturally Gentle Cleansing – Mild Yet Effective – Sulfate-Free Foaming
Quick Overview
Decyl Glucoside is a premium, plant-derived non-ionic surfactant designed for gentle yet effective cleansing in personal care formulations. Manufactured from renewable glucose and fatty alcohols, it offers excellent foaming, superior skin compatibility, and outstanding biodegradability. It is widely used in sulfate-free shampoos, facial cleansers, baby care products, body washes, and natural cosmetics where mildness and performance are equally important.
Ideal for sensitive skin formulations, Decyl Glucoside creates a rich, stable lather while helping preserve the skin’s natural moisture barrier.
Product Description
Decyl Glucoside is a high-performance alkyl polyglucoside (APG) surfactant valued for its exceptional mildness and excellent cleansing properties. As a non-ionic surfactant, it provides effective removal of dirt, excess oil, and impurities without the harshness associated with sulfate-based surfactants.
Derived from renewable plant resources, Decyl Glucoside is readily biodegradable and compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients. It works exceptionally well as both a primary and secondary surfactant and is frequently combined with amphoteric or anionic surfactants to improve foam quality, reduce irritation, and enhance the overall sensory experience.
Its excellent skin tolerance makes it suitable for daily-use products, including baby shampoos, facial cleansers, sulfate-free shampoos, hand washes, body washes, and natural cosmetic formulations.
