octyl glucoside, caprylic glucoside
Britens APG 225 DK is the darkest colored of the poly alkyl glucosides, a group of non-ionic
surfactants which are mild to the skin, non toxic and readily degradable and sustainable;
completely manufactured from palm oil and sugar. The color of Britens APG 225 DK is
custom made and specified by our customers.
In this structural formula the glucose part is only a hydrophylic head; m=1–5; most often 1 or
2. The long tail of this surfactant is made of the fatty alcohol part; n = 5-13.
In case of Britens APG 225 DK: n=7-9.
Britens APG types are active in a wide range of temperatures and pH.
Biodegradable Britens APG types without foam are Britens APG Y8 and Britens APG Z6.
A biodegradable anionic surfactant with stronger cleaning power but not as mild as Britens
APG types is Britens AOS. A slower degradable and still mild anionic surfactant is Britens
ABS.
The first patents for APG date from the 30-ies, but only end of the 70-ies Rohm and Haas started to
manufacture the first industrial quantity APG C8-10. In the 80-ies longer chains of APG C14 were
introduced. In 1992 the first manufacturing unit dedicated to 50,000tpa APG was opened.
The applications for Britens APG types are liquid detergents and any form of cosmetics. The
longest C-chains render the best emulsifying properties.

Britens APG 225 DK is readily biodegradable according to OECD 301 A-F. Aerobic as well as
anaerobic.
Britens APG 225 DK is synergistic with other surfactants. In combination with Britens APG
225 DK, the concentrations of the environmentally less friendly surfactants can be lowered
20-50%.
