The Journal of Surfactants and Detergents AOCS has been publishing lately open-access innovative work on biobased surfactants and biosurfactants: Past, present and future of glycolipids from Ustilaginaceae – A review on cellobiose lipids and mannosylerythritol lipids https://lnkd.in/erxkXkR2 Authors: Marie-Françoise CHIRAC, Sophie Cambos, Jérôme Guilbot, Corinne Nawrocki, Regis Marchand, Alicia Roso from SEPPIC Highlights: 1. 🌿 Eco-Designed Bio-Based Ingredient: This study evaluates the hydrotropic/solubilizing properties of 100% bio-based heptyl glucoside, emphasizing its performance and biodegradability compared to industrial and personal care benchmarks. 2. 🧪 Comprehensive Performance Assessment: Heptyl glucoside's foaming power, hydrotropic performance in high electrolyte, acid, and alkali concentrations, and its solubilizing effect on hydrophobic additives were thoroughly investigated, highlighting its versatility in various applications. 3. 💧 Non-Foaming Nature and Compatibility: Unlike other surfactants, heptyl glucoside exhibits a unique non-foaming nature while maintaining the foaming capacity of other surfactants, making it suitable for a wide range of cleansing products, including those that should not foam. 4. 🌍 Low Environmental Impact and Preservation Benefits: With a low carbon footprint and superior solubilizing performance, heptyl glucoside reduces the preservative dosage required in natural formulations, enhancing sustainability and performance in personal care products. #biobasedsurfactants #Glucosides #SEPPIC
