3.Application Scope and Usage
APG0810 is widely used in personal-care formulations as a mild foaming agent in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers and baby products. In household and industrial cleaning it serves as a low-foaming, non-corrosive surfactant for hard-surface cleaners, degreasers and alkaline scouring agents. It also functions as an emulsifier in agrochemicals, as a foaming aid in drilling fluids, and as a dispersant in textile dyeing and leather processing.
