Galaxy 110 is a non-ionic surface active agent derived from diethanolamine and coco fatty acids. It is mainly used as foam and viscosity booster. It provides excellent viscosity building and foam stabilization in anionic based systems such as shampoos, hand washes and body cleansers. The reduced water solubility and melting point of diethanolamides effectively control the dissolution rate in systems such as toilet bowl blocks, synthetic soap bars and various tablet formulations.

Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 1 Year
- Storage & Handling Information
- Store the material in a clean and dry place at 25 - 35°C away from heat and direct sunlight.
- Keep containers tightly closed.
- On prolonged storage below 5°C, if the product gets solidified, it is recommended to keep the HMHDPE carboys in hot room of temperature 25 - 35°C (avoid direct heating).
- Slight drop in pH and free amine is possible over prolonged storage. In case of drop in pH, it is fairly safe to use the material as long as the pH is > 7.0.
- In original sealed condition, when stored as suggested, shelf life of the product is at least one year.
- During storage, carboys should not be stacked one above the other.
