CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- D-Glucopyranose, C16-18-Alkyl Glycosides
CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE supplier for personal-care, cleaning and formulation buyers in Malaysia. This non-ionic C16-18 alkyl glucoside is used as an emulsifier and surfactant aid, with the named ingredient kept separate from cetearyl alcohol and from finished co-emulsifier blends.
Personal-care and cleaning/formulation grades are supplied as white to off-white waxy beads, flakes, granules or powder. Buyers compare identity, composition basis, physical form, appearance, colour, water, pH basis and process-relevant impurity limits for the exact grade.
Applications include oil-in-water creams, lotions, conditioners, sunscreens and selected home-care or institutional formulations. Formulation selection depends on the oil phase, surfactant system, addition method and emulsion trials rather than an invented universal HLB value.
Send the required grade, physical form, composition basis, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Packing, available technical documentation, quotation validity and delivery timing are confirmed for neat cetearyl glucoside or a separately declared blend.

Common questions about CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE
What is cetearyl glucoside?
It is a non-ionic C16-18 alkyl glucoside used mainly as an emulsifier and formulation aid. The page covers the cetearyl glucoside ingredient under CAS 246159-33-1, not every blend marketed around it.
Is cetearyl glucoside the same as cetearyl alcohol?
No. Cetearyl glucoside is an alkyl glucoside surfactant, while cetearyl alcohol is a fatty-alcohol mixture used for structure and consistency. They are often paired in formulations but remain separate ingredients.
Is a cetearyl glucoside and cetearyl alcohol blend the same product?
No. A blend contains both ingredients at a declared composition and may also include other components. It should be specified by its full ingredient declaration rather than treated as a grade of neat cetearyl glucoside.
What physical forms of CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE can be specified?
Commercial requirements may call for waxy beads, flakes, granules or powder. State the melting or dispersion process, dust-control needs and dosing method so a suitable physical form can be considered.
Does CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE have one universal HLB value?
This catalogue does not publish a generic HLB. Selection should use the supplier specification for the exact grade together with the formulation's oil phase, processing method and emulsion trials.
Which specifications matter when buying CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE?
State identity and composition basis, appearance, physical form, colour, water, pH basis and relevant impurity limits. If the offer is a blend, require the full ingredient declaration and component basis.
What details are needed for a CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE quotation?
Provide grade, physical form, neat-ingredient or blend requirement, formulation type, specification, quantity and delivery location. Add packing and technical-document needs for confirmation with the quotation.
