Nonionic surfactants
Categories of Ingredients
PEG-6 Cocamide
It has a detergent effect, good wetting, improves foaming, has a dispersing, emulsifying and solubilizing ability. Recommended in degreasing agents and detergents for various hard surfaces.
Cocamide DEA
Used as a thickener in detergent products. Allows you to reduce the amount of NaCl required to achieve the optimal viscosity of the recipe, improves the stability of the finished product at low temperatures. Increases foaming and improves the quality of the foam.
PEG-4 Rapeseedamide
It is an effective thickener for foaming products, an emulsifier, a regreaser. Mild co-surfactant with good cleaning action, improves foaming and foam quality. Gives products a pleasant feeling on the skin.
PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate
Nonionic surfactant of plant origin. Solubilizer for fragrances and extracts. It is used as an emollient, regreaser in detergents.
Glycereth-7 Caprylate/Caprate
Foams in the presence of various contaminants, improves foaming in combination with amphoteric surfactants and when replacing classic non-ionic ones. In formulations, it exhibits excellent degreasing power, easily removing dirt and providing better cleansing. Reduces the cloud point, allowing you to reduce or completely eliminate the introduction of hydrotropes in concentrated detergents.
Laureth-9/Myreth-9
Nonionic surfactant, used as an emulsifier and as a detergent.
PEG-75 Lanolin
Nonionic surfactant based on lanolin. Acts as an emulsifier and solubilizer, refatting component into foaming products.
Polysorbate 60
Emulsifier, co-emulsifier. Reduces irritation of surfactants in detergent products. Perfume solubilizer.
Sorbitan Oleate
Emulsifier, co-emulsifier
Polysorbate 20
Emulsifier, co-emulsifier. Reduces irritation of surfactants in detergent products. Perfume solubilizer.
Glycereth-2 Cocoate
Designed for products that are very gentle on the skin. It is an excellent refatting agent, thickener and solubilizer. Enhances foaming, improves foam characteristics and stability of the finished product at low temperatures. Significantly reduces the irritating effect of anionic surfactants, including sodium lauryl sulfoethoxylate.
Glycereth-17 Cocoate
Very mild, non-ionic co-surfactant. Significantly reduces the irritating effect of anionic surfactants, including sodium lauryl sulfoethoxylate. It has foam control properties.
