Physical and functional properties of some higher alkyl polyglucosides.
01 May 1970-Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society (J Am Oil Chem Soc)-Vol. 47, Iss: 5, pp 162-167
TL;DR: The higher alkyl polyglucosides are a new class of nonionic surfactants which can be formulated to give properties ranging from soft greases to hard glassy water-soluble solids melting from about 30 C to above 300 C and which are insoluble in common organic solvents.
Abstract: The higher alkyl polyglucosides are a new class of nonionic surfactants which can be formulated to give properties ranging from soft greases to hard glassy water-soluble solids melting from about 30 C to above 300 C and which are insoluble in common organic solvents. The aqueous solutions do not exhibit inverse solubility with temperature or concentration. They show low eye and skin irritation and a very low degree of toxicity (LD50 greater than 35 g/kg). They have a bland taste, are good foamers with low surface tension, are compatible with inorganic detergent builders, and are biodegradable. They show good functionality in various applications such as detergents, food emulsifiers, cosmetic surfactants, pharmaceutical granulating agents and industrial emulsifiers.
