INCI-NAME:
Coco-glucoside
DESCRIPTION:
CosVivet APG CG46 is a mild and natural nonionic surfactant produced from glucose and fatty alcohols. It belongs to the alkylpolyglucoside surfactant group and is 100 % biologically degradable. CosVivet APG CG46, which is free of preservatives, is COSMOS- and halal-certified.
APPLICATION:
CosVivet APG CG46 can be used as a primary or a co-surfactant. It has unique performance in cleaning, emulsifying and thickening and exhibits excellent detergency, emulsifying, penetrating and surface retention reduction properties.
It has a softening effect on skin and hair. When used in haircare applications, it improves the combability of hair.
