Yes.Our flagship product is Coco-Glucoside, which is supplied in liquid form (50–52% active content); however, we also offer Cocoyl Glucoside powder. Typically, the active ingredient content is ≥95% and is primarily used in dry powder detergents and effervescent tablet formulations.
The powder form is produced via a spray-drying process; consequently, its pricing and Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) differ from those of the liquid product. If you are interested in purchasing Cocoyl Glucoside powder, please contact us promptly for a price quote.
When used at recommended concentrations, Cocoyl Glucoside poses no toxicological risks. This product is generally well-tolerated, but may not be suitable for everyone.
People with a corn allergy need to be careful, as Cocoyl Glucoside may be derived from corn-based raw materials. Nevertheless, the proteins are substantially removed during the refining process, resulting in an extremely low risk of allergic reaction.
Yes, Cocoyl Glucoside may crystallize or precipitate when exposed to temperatures below 15°C. However, this does not compromise the product’s quality. It can be used directly once it has returned to a uniform liquid state.
No, Cocoyl Glucoside is non-comedogenic. Due to its relatively large molecular weight, Cocoyl Glucoside does not penetrate pores or get absorbed by the skin;It primarily acts on the skin’s surface to provide a cleansing effect.
It does not contain EO (Ethylene Oxide) and fully complies with natural cosmetic standards.
Our Cocoyl Glucoside is produced using a green process .No EO is used whatsoever during the preparation process.It differs fundamentally from anionic surfactants such as SLS and SLES.
Please purchase with confidence; upon request, we can provide a COSMOS compliance statement, a certificate of raw material origin, and an ISO 16128 calculation sheet.
Yes, Coco-Glucoside is considered a safe cosmetic ingredient for pregnant women to use.

Recommended Usage Levels of Coco-Glucoside in Various Formulations
Cocoyl Glucoside raw material is strongly alkaline; therefore, during the formulation process, acidic substances (such as citric acid) must be used to adjust the pH level to a skin-friendly range.
| Product Type | Function | Recommended Dosage |
| Shampoo | Primary/auxiliary surfactant, providing mild cleansing and rich foam | 8–15% |
| Body Wash | Cleansing, foaming, with refreshing and non-tight skin feel | 8–20% |
| Facial Cleanser | Mild decontamination, suitable for sensitive skin and amino acid formulations | 10–25% |
| Baby & Child Toiletries | Extremely low irritation, safe for newborns | 5–15% |
| Hand Wash | Cleansing, mild and hand-protective | 10–20% |
| Toothpaste / Mouthwash | Foaming agent, humectant | 1–5% |
Cocoyl Glucoside Alternatives
Coco Glucoside vs Decyl Glucoside
| Properties | Coco Glucoside | Decyl Glucoside | Impact of Substitution |
| Carbon Chain Length | C8–C16 (mixed) | C8–C10 (mainly C10) | Shorter carbon chain in decyl glucoside |
| Foaming Speed | Medium | Faster, richer | Quicker foam generation |
| Foam Stability | Good | Foam dissipates faster | Slightly poorer foam stability |
| Viscosity | 2500–6000 mPa·s | 1000–2500 mPa·s | Lower viscosity; thickening adjustment required |
| Skin Feel | Refreshing after cleansing | Smoother after cleansing | Different sensory experience |
| Alkaline Resistance | Good | Excellent (640g/L NaOH) | More suitable for high-alkaline formulations |
| Irritation | Extremely low | Extremely low | Both are very mild |
| Recommended Applications | Facial cleansers, baby care, household cleaning | High-foam products, high-alkaline systems, sensitive skin |
Note: Commercial-grade Cocoyl Glucoside and Decyl Glucoside share a single CAS number; they are similar in terms of function and application, differing only in subtle nuances.
Cocoyl Glucoside and Decyl Glucoside can be used in combination; The performance of the mixture is superior to that of either component used alone.
