Request SDS →PEG-30 Glyceryl Cocoate (CAS 26160-80-5) is an ethoxylated coconut-oil glyceride supplied as a nonionic surfactant. It functions as an emulsifier and refatting agent in surfactant-based personal-care and cleansing formulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is PEG-30 glyceryl cocoate used for?
PEG-30 glyceryl cocoate (CAS 26160-80-5) is an ethoxylated coconut-oil glyceride supplied as a nonionic surfactant. It functions as an emulsifier for oil-in-water cleansing systems, as a refatting/superfatting agent that offsets surfactant defatting, and as a solubilizer for oils and fragrance.
Is glyceryl cocoate from coconut?
Yes. Glyceryl cocoate is derived from coconut fatty acids esterified with glycerin; the PEG-30 grade is further ethoxylated with about 30 ethylene-oxide units to tune its surfactant and refatting behavior.
What is a refatting or superfatting agent?
A refatting (superfatting) agent is a mild oily or ethoxylated-ester component added to surfactant cleansers to counteract the defatting effect of the primary surfactants. PEG-30 glyceryl cocoate is used in this role to improve the feel of the finished cleanser.
What is the CAS number and HS code for PEG-30 glyceryl cocoate?
It carries CAS 26160-80-5 and typically classifies under HS heading 3402.42 (nonionic surface-active agents). Confirm the import classification for your jurisdiction with your broker.
How is bulk PEG-30 glyceryl cocoate supplied, and how do I get a price?
RawSource supplies it in bulk industrial packaging such as drums and IBCs/totes for manufacturers. Pricing depends on volume; request a bulk quote with quantity and ship-to and we will provide current CoA and SDS.
