Glucam™

Glucam™ E-20 humectant is a naturally-derived, multi-functional, mild ingredient that delivers a light, satin-like emollient feel in moisturizing systems. It is an ethoxylated methyl glucose ether and is 100% active. Its low irritation potential makes it ideal for sensitive skin formulations. Additionally, Glucam™ E-20 humectant helps prevent soap bars from cracking and acts as a process aid in soap bar extrusion.

Glucam™ P-20 humectant is a naturally-derived, 100% active, propoxylated methyl glucose ether. It is one of the few naturally-derived cosmetic fluids that is miscible with water, alcohols, organic esters, and oils. It delivers humectancy with a lubricious, emollient feel in any product. In alcohol-based systems, Glucam™ P-20 humectant reduces the stinging effect alcohol can have on the skin. Furthermore, it acts as a fixative in fragrance-containing formulations by reducing the volatilization of high notes. The light color and low odor of Glucam™ P-20 humectant do not interfere with the mood the fragrance is trying to convey. It is recommended for use in hair and skin care products.

Glucam™ E-10 humectant is a naturally-derived, mild ingredient that provides moisture to the skin while reducing the tacky feel commonly associated with moisturizing skin creams. It is an ethoxylated methyl glucose ether and is 100% active. Its low irritation potential makes it suitable for both rinse-off and leave-on skin care systems such as lotions, creams, and body cleansing formulations.

Glucam™ P-10 humectant is a propoxylated methyl glucose ether derived from natural sources. It is a 100% active ingredient that enhances the luxurious feel of shampoos and other surfactant-based products.

Glucam™ P-10 humectant is recommended for use in lotions, creams, cleansing formulations, hair conditioners, styling gels, and mousses.
