Understanding the Chemical Structure of Alkyl Polyglucosides
Alkyl Polyglucosides (APGs) are non-ionic surfactants made from the reaction between sugars (typically glucose) and fatty alcohols. These substances are lauded for their mildness, biodegradability, and compatibility with various applications in industries like personal care, cleaning products, an...Read more -
Understanding the Uses of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate
Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) is a surfactant found in many everyday products. It’s a chemical that reduces the surface tension of liquids, allowing them to spread and mix more easily. Let’s explore the various applications of SLS. What is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate? SLS is a synthetic detergent that is...Read more -
Fluorinated Surfactants: The Backbone of Firefighting Foams
In the relentless battle against fire, firefighting foams stand as a crucial line of defense. These foams, composed of water, surfactants, and other additives, effectively extinguish fires by smothering the flames, preventing oxygen access, and cooling the burning materials. At the heart of these...Read more -

Alkyl polyglucoside (APG) has emerged as a star player in this pursuit, captivating the attention of formulators and consumers alike with its unique properties and diverse applications. Derived from renewable ...Read more -
Alkyl polyglucoside C12~C16 series
Alkyl polyglucoside C12~C16 series (APG 1214) Lauryl glucoside (APG1214) is the same as other alkyl polyglucosides which are not pure alkyl monoglucosides, but a complex mixture of alkyl mono-, di”，tri”，and oligoglycosides. Because of this, the industrial products are called alkyl polyglycoside...Read more -

Bioactive glass (calcium sodium phosphosilicate) Bioactive glass (calcium sodium phosphosilicate) is a kind of material that can repair, replace and regenerate body tissues, and has the ability to form bonds between tissues and materials.Discovered by Hench in 1969, Bioactive glass is a silicate...Read more -
Alkyl polyglucoside C8~C16 series
Alkyl polyglucoside C8~C16 series (APG0814) Alkyl glucoside C8~C16 series (APG0814) is a sort of non-ionic surfactant with comprehensive properties. It is regenerated from natural glucose which derived from corn starch and fatty alcohols which derived from palm cornel oil and coco nut oil, throu...Read more -
The application of a surfactant group
The application of a surfactant group A discussion of the application of a surfactant group that is rather new-not so much as a compound, but in its more sophisticated properties and applications-must include economic aspects such as its probable position in the surfactant market. Surfactants con...Read more -
The Properties of Alkyl Polyglucosides
The Properties of Alkyl Polyglucosides Similar to polyoxyethylene alkyl ethers, alkyl polyglycosides are usually technical surfactants. They are produced via different modes of Fischer synthesis and consist of a distribution of species with different degrees of glycosidation indicated by a mean n...Read more -
