Coco glucoside

Coco glucoside (CAS 141464-42-8 ) is a mild, plant-derived nonionic surfactant produced from coconut fatty alcohols and glucose. Known in trade as decyl glucoside, it is a preferred ingredient in rinse-off and leave-on formulations.

This material is selected where gentle cleansing with low irritation potential is a sourcing priority. In personal care, it functions as the primary or co-surfactant in baby shampoos, facial cleansers, and body washes.

It delivers stable foam with minimal disruption to skin barrier formulations. It pairs effectively with anionic surfactants to boost foam volume and moderate harshness, a combination standard in sulfate-free shampoo development.

In household and institutional cleaning products, it contributes degreasing performance in surface sprays and hand dishwashing liquids. This is particularly useful where biodegradability is a strict formulation requirement.

Food-contact surface sanitizers and produce wash concentrates also utilize this surfactant for its cleaning efficacy. It performs well under regulatory frameworks that restrict synthetic surfactant residues in food environments.

The product is supplied as a clear to slightly hazy liquid, typically as an aqueous solution at 50–70% active content. Technical and cosmetic grades are available to meet various industrial needs.

Cosmetic-grade material meets COSMOS and ECOCERT certification criteria relevant to natural and organic product lines. It remains a versatile choice for manufacturers seeking sustainable and effective surfactant solutions.
