Introduction: APG is a new kind nonionic surfactant with comprehensive nature, which is directly compounded by renewable natural glucose and fatty alcohol. It has characteristic of both common nonionic and anionic surfactant with high surface activity, good ecological security and intermiscibility. Almost no surfactant can compare favorably with APG in terms of ecological security, irritation and toxicity. It is internationally recognized as the preferred "green" functional surfactant.

Application:
- Laundry Detergents, Liquid Hand Dish Detergents, I&I Cleaners: It is well suited for laundry applications, where micellar solubilization, emulsification and detergency are required. These alkyl polyglucoside surfactants function as conventional non-ionic surfactants, but are easy to formulate because they do not exhibit a gel phase upon dilution. It is soluble and stable in liquid formulations containing high levels of builders and electrolytes. Also, these alkyl polyglucoside surfactants are compatible, and in some cases synergistic, with enzymes, optical brightners, and other surfactants, including cationics.
- Liquid Hand Dish Detergents: In products such as liquid hand dish detergent, where high foaming and good detergency are required, APG1214 provides excellent performance coupled with outstanding mildness to skin.
Packing: 50/200/220KG/drum or as customers require.
Storage: It can be stored in sealed original containers protected from frost and below 45 ºC for at least 2 years.
Maximum Storage Temperature: When heating, avoid prolonged localized temperatures exceeding 43ºC to avoid possible product discoloration. Use tempered water when possible. Low pressure steam is acceptable if the product is monitored regularly. For easier handling the product can be warmed up to max. 50ºC for a short duration without influence onto the product specification.
If the product is stored at temperatures below 38ºC crystallization may occur. Depending on the storage time sedimentation may occur. Therefore, the product should be heated and stirred until uniform before use. APG 1214 has a high pH-value and for this reason the product contains no preservatives.
Bulk storage material: Carbon steel should not be used to store or handle APG 1214 due to probable contamination by iron. Recommended plastic drum or IBC made of high density polyethylene (HDPE) are both acceptable.
