General Description

NANOSURF APG (Decyl) is a mild, non-ionic surfactant derived from natural, renewable raw materials such as plant-based fatty alcohols and glucose. Belonging to the alkyl polyglucoside (APG) family, it is known for its biodegradability, excellent skin compatibility, and eco-friendly profile. At 50% active concentration, NANOSURF APG (Decyl) offers superior cleaning and foaming properties while remaining gentle on the skin and hair.

Its balanced performance makes it a preferred choice for manufacturers developing green, sustainable, and mild personal care formulations.

Uses in the Cosmetic Industry

NANOSURF APG (Decyl) is widely used in personal care and cosmetic formulations, including:

  • Provides mild cleansing without stripping natural oils
  • Ensures gentle foam suitable for sensitive skin
  • Safe and non-irritating for delicate skin
  • Helps solubilize oils and impurities effectively
  • Offers mild yet efficient cleansing action
  • Fits perfectly into natural and organic cosmetic lines

Its versatility, compatibility with other surfactants, and mildness make it a core ingredient in sulfate-free and skin-friendly formulations.

Hazard Information

NANOSURF APG (Decyl) is considered safe and non-toxic when used within recommended cosmetic concentrations. However, standard handling precautions apply:

  • Generally recognized as non-irritant, but very high concentrations may cause mild dryness or irritation in sensitive individuals.
  • May cause temporary stinging or redness if accidentally introduced into the eyes; formulations should be balanced to minimize irritation.
  • Low risk in liquid form; avoid aerosolized application unless tested for inhalation safety.
  • Readily biodegradable and environmentally safe, making it a sustainable surfactant choice.

Overall, NANOSURF APG (Decyl) is regarded as a safe, eco-conscious surfactant, suitable even for sensitive skin and baby care formulations.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

NanoSurf APG (Decyl) is a nano-engineered, enhanced form of Alkyl Polyglucoside (APG) solution (50%). Specifically formulated using decyl alkyl chains, this nano-form offers significantly improved performance in cleansing, foaming, and skin-friendly applications.

Alkyl Polyglucosides (APGs) are mild, non-ionic surfactants derived from natural glucose and fatty alcohols. The 50% solution typically refers to an aqueous concentration of decyl or mixed APG, used widely for its mildness, good foaming, biodegradability, and compatibility with sensitive skin .

NanoSurf APG (Decyl) delivers all the established benefits of standard APG—excellent foaming, cleaning, and mildness—but with the added advantages of nano-technology: finer dispersion, enhanced skin adherence, improved stability, and lighter sensory feel. This enables more efficient formulations even at lower concentrations.

Enhanced foaming and lather quality

Improved skin compatibility and gentle cleansing

Better formulation stability and clarity

Strong biodegradability and eco-friendly profile

Excellent compatibility across diverse formula systems

Ideal for a wide range of personal care applications including:

Shampoos and conditioners

Facial cleansers and body washes

Bath products and gentle formulations for sensitive skin

Baby care and sulfate-free cleansing systems

CAS Number: 68515-73-1 (commonly associated with decyl/octyl glucosides and similar APGs)

INCI Name
: Decyl Glucoside (or more generally, Alkyl Polyglucoside depending on the specific chain length mix)

Note: NanoSurf APG (Decyl) retains the same INCI and CAS for regulatory compliance, though its nano-form may be specified in technical documentation for transparency.

Yes. Thanks to its gentle, biodegradable nature and plant-derived origin, NanoSurf APG (Decyl) is widely accepted as safe, particularly for sensitive skin types. It maintains the excellent skin compatibility profile of traditional APGs .

Use NanoSurf APG (Decyl) like standard APG surfactants—with even better results:

As primary or co-surfactant in cleansers, foams, and emulsions

Typical usage: 1–15%, depending on product type and desired foam or viscosity

Its nano-scale ensures smooth dispersion with simple mixing, but homogenization can enhance clarity and texture

All skin types benefit, particularly:

Sensitive and delicate skin due to mildness

Baby skin formulations (due to ultra-gentle cleansing)

Oily or combination skin (lighter touch, efficient cleansing)
