Glucamate™ DOE-120 Syrup thickener (70% active), is a vegetable-derived, highly efficient, liquid viscosity builder designed for use with numerous anionic surfactants (i.e. ammonium lauryl sulfate, sodium laureth-2 sulfate, triethanolamine lauryl sulfate, etc.) and amphoteric surfactant systems popular in many shampoos, body washes and liquid soaps.

With eye irritation test scores of zero, Glucamate DOE-120 Syrup thickener is non-irritating to the eyes, making it ideal for baby shampoos. As important, the addition of Glucamate DOE-120 Syrup thickener to formulas can significantly reduce the eye irritation normally associated with harsh surfactants.

The multifunctionality of Glucamate DOE-120 thickener to viscosify and reduce irritation makes it ideal for use in cleansing applications. Formulators count on Glucamate DOE-120 thickener to create products that are easy to pour and have aesthetically pleasing foaming properties without the worry of changing foam characteristics.
