Capryl / Caprylyl Glucoside Natural Surfactant Caprylyl Glucoside Natural Surfactant is a natural, mild, solubilizing non-ionic surfactant that ideal for all foaming and cleansing products. It is obtained from renewable raw materials (Fatty alcohols and glucose from vegetable origin). Our Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside is a glucose alkyl ether containing 60% active matter that is ECOCERT Compliant and preservative free. Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside commonly finds in formulations because it provides excellent, gentle cleaning surfactant properties. Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside is also a highly effective solubilizing agent for essential oils and fragrances. Most Formulators use Caprylyl/Capryl Glucoside in their formulations rather At low temperatures, surfactants may undergo a phenomenon called "gel formation," in which the surfactant molecules arrange themselves in a specific structure.
