Alkyl polyglucoside is one of the essential raw materials in shampoo, because APG has no irritation to human skin and eyes, and can also reduce the irritation of other active agents compounded with APG, so it is one of the essential raw materials in low stimulation shampoo and children shampoo. The softness of APG can protect the damaged hair, which can be used as active agent for hair dyeing and scalding, and compounded with protein hydrolysate The setting property is comparable to that of the commonly used setting agent, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and it is easier to rinse. APG can be used to prepare a new generation of shampoo and bath liquid with strong foaming power and fine foam.
In the skin cleaning products, APG has good safety, mild, decontamination, foaming and foam stability, compatibility and rheology.
Therefore, it is often used in bath liquid and facial cleanser for skin cleaning. Add a small amount of APG to the bath formula as a conditioner, which will make the skin feel more comfortable after washing.
In hair conditioner, APG has a soft effect on skin, no stimulation on eyes, and good conditioning and maintenance effect on hair. Cooperating with quaternary ammonium salt can improve the wet combing rationality of hair, while the dry combing is basically the same. If some oil, such as octyl dodecanol, is added to conditioner, wet combing rationality will be further improved.
The use of APG as emulsifier in cosmetics can reduce the irritation of formula, increase the moisturizing effect of formula and improve the efficacy of functional products
Surfactants are widely used in industrial production and human daily life, and occupy a special and important position. They are called "industrial monosodium glutamate". Adding a certain amount of surfactants in detergents can enhance the solubility and washability of detergents, but because these solvents have certain toxicity, they will produce obvious irritation to the skin. A large number of surfactants will also have potential harm to the ecosystem. In recent years, in order to solve the increasingly serious problem of environmental pollution, green chemistry stands out from the chemistry discipline, and becomes the hotspot and frontier of the current chemistry research.
