What is Lauryl Glucoside?
Highassay’s Lauryl Glucoside — Your Green, Gentle, and Natural Surfactant Formulation
- Lauryl glucoside is a non-ionic surfactant prepared from natural plant-based raw materials (anhydrous glucose and lauryl alcohol).
- Lauryl Glucoside is 100% plant-derived and is a non-petroleum-based, renewable raw material.
- Lauryl glucoside is widely used in personal care and household cleaning products.Because it is classified as a low-risk ingredient by the EWG and has been deemed safe by the CIR at regulated concentrations.
If you replace the primary surfactant in your formula with Lauryl Glucoside, your product will secure a strong foothold in the high-end natural market.

Advantages of Lauryl Glucoside
Being sulfate-free is one of the most significant characteristics distinguishing Lauryl Glucoside from other surfactants.
- Gentle and Low-Irritation: Lauryl glucoside causes minimal irritation to the skin and eyes, and very friendly to infants and toddlers.
- Cleansing and Foaming: It produces a rich, fine foam and possesses powerful cleansing capabilities.
- Solubility and Stability: It is readily soluble in water and remains stable to resistant to strong acids, strong bases, and hard water.
- Compatibility: Can be used in combination with any other type of surfactant, doubling the effectiveness.
- Eco-friendly: 100% biodegradable.
- Multifunctional: In addition to foam boosting and cleaning, it also provides thickening, emulsifying, and wetting properties.
Grades of Lauryl Glucoside
One molecule. Multiple formats. Whether you need a pumpable liquid, a thick paste, or a pure crystalline powder — Highassay delivers Lauryl Glucoside your way.
Both the cosmetic grade and industrial grade are mixtures (Alkyl Polyglucosides/APG) and utilize CAS No. 110615-47-9; the high-purity reagent grade is a single compound and utilizes CAS No. 59122-55-3. The properties of these two categories differ significantly.
- Cosmetic-Grade Lauryl Glucoside: Active content 50–52%; appears as a pale yellow, transparent liquid; can be added directly during use.
- Industrial-Grade Lauryl Glucoside: Active content 50–70%; appears as a pale yellow liquid or paste; should be diluted prior to base on specific usage scenarios.
- High-Purity Reagent-Grade Lauryl Glucoside: Active content 99% or higher; appears as a white crystalline powder.

These three ingredients can be used in combination to form a premium “glycoside-based blend system.”
Lauryl Glucoside: A naturally mild and eco-friendly primary cleansing agent; it is a non-ionic surfactant—specifically, a salt-free non-ionic surfactant.
Sodium Lauryl Glucoside: APG-Modified Anionic Surfactants, offering enhanced cleansing power and superior foaming properties.
Sodium Lauryl Glucoside Carboxylate: Mild, APG-Derived Cleansing Surfactants.Gentle yet effective cleansing,commonly used in High-End formulations.
No, it is a widely recognized, safe, mild, and naturally derived surfactant.
It is extremely safe for our hair, skin, and teeth.
Coco-Glucoside generates foam more rapidly and produces a richer lather, whereas Lauryl Glucoside yields a finer and more stable foam.
Using the two in combination accelerates the foaming process while also ensuring the quality of the foam.
Lauryl Glucoside is milder. It is suitable for use in baby care products and “tear-free” formulations.
Decyl Glucoside offers stronger cleansing power; however, for adult personal care products, its mildness is still entirely adequate.
It is recommended to use the two in combination to achieve complementary performance.
