PEG-6 Glyceryl Cocoate is a surfactant belonging to the group of so-called PEGs. It is known for its emulsifying and cleaning properties. It is mainly used as one of the ingredients of detergents, mainly dishwashing liquids and concentrated washing liquids.
PEG-6 Glyceryl Cocoate is mainly used in detergents such as dishwashing liquids or washing liquids due to its very good cleaning properties. The compound is especially recommended as a component of concentrated washing liquids. It can be used in products compliant with the requirements of Ecolabel and Nordic Swan. These are certificates that are granted to products meeting the environmental criteria and confirm that neither the product, nor the production, or even the disposal process of this product may pose a threat to the natural environment. PEG-6 Glyceryl Cocoate is also a good emulsifier, which, under process conditions, significantly facilitates the removal of impurities of various origins from the cleaned surfaces. PEG-6 Glyceryl Cocoate shows a synergistic effect with other emulsifiers. It supports the action of other emulsifiers, which makes the formation of an O/W emulsion, i.e. an emulsion in which oil particles are dispersed in water, more effective. The good solubility of PEG-6 Glyceryl Cocoate along with anionic, non-ionic and amphoteric surfactants is also often used.
PEG-6 Glyceryl Cocoate is found in the following products:
