Alkyl Polyglucoside Pro-APG0814
APG is nonionic surfactant made from natural raw materials – glucose from corn and fatty alcohols from coconut and palm kernel oils. It is very mild, low in toxicity and readily biodegradable. APG exhibits good wetting and dispersing properties, detergency and foaming ability, stability and solubility in high concentration of alkaline or electrolyte solutions and compatibility even synergistic effects with other surfactants. APG are widely used in personal care, household cleaning, industrial cleaning, textile and agrochemical industries, etc.
Applications
- APG 0810: Agrochemical adjuvant, hard surface cleanser, industrial cleanser, etc
- APG 0814: Textile agent, shampoo, detergents, etc
- APG 1214: Lotion, shampoo, dishware cleanser, cosmetics, etc
With long carbon chain in the structure, APG1214 is more hydrophobic than APG0810. Thus APG1214 has better washing and emulsifying ability while APG 0810 is more suitable in aqueous formulation. APG0814 is a mixture of APG 0810 and APG 1214 and collects both advantages.
Note
- The high pH value of APG may lead to characteristic turbidity of product when stored in room temperature.
- It has no negative influence to the product quality and use. When used as an additive in formulations, adjust the pH about 8.0, the turbidity disappears. The high pH value has preservative effects to the product.
- The color, pH value and viscosity of APG can be adjusted according to customer’s requirements.
