SurfThix DOE

CAS#: 86893-19-8, 68239-42-9, 7732-18-5/231-791-2 SurfThix™ DOE is a non-ionic liquid thickener for surfactant systems that are difficult to thicken, for example, those made with non-ionics like decyl or lauryl glucoside or those that won’t thicken well with salt, such as disodium sulfosuccinate. It can be used as an emollient, irritation reducer, and irritation mitigator in cleansing products such as shampoo, facial cleansers, and shower gels. SurfThix™ DOE does not thicken sulfate-based surfactants.  Generally those are thickened well with salt.Key Benefits Thickens surfactant systems without the use of salt Thickens sulfate-free non-ionic surfactant systems, like those including decyl or lauryl glucoside Produces clear systems Acts an emollient, increasing a feeling of moisturization when using cleansing products Acts as an irritation mitigator and mildness enhancer Doesn’t require neutralization achieve a skin friendly pH Can be used in cold process formulating, thus saving money
