Application boundary
C8-C10 Alkyl Polyglucoside (APG) is an oligomeric C8-C10 alkyl polyglucoside (APG) commercial substance. CAS 68515-73-1 identifies a UVCB/oligomeric C8-C10 APG material. It is not a single fixed-formula molecule or a product-specific branded formulation.
In the RFQ, state: the required C8-C10 APG alkyl-chain composition, active-matter content or physical-form specification, and intended formulation; quantity, packaging, destination and required documents.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain
-
Q:
Does CAS 68515-73-1 represent one pure Alkyl Polyglucoside molecule?
A: No. C8-C10 Alkyl Polyglucoside is an oligomeric commercial substance with a distribution of alkyl chains and glucose units. CAS 68515-73-1 confirms the substance identity, not a single molecular formula, brand or grade. -
Q:
What is C8-C10 Alkyl Polyglucoside used for?
A: It is used as a readily biodegradable nonionic surfactant in hard-surface cleaners, laundry and dishwashing products, agrochemical adjuvants, and personal-care cleansing formulations. It provides wetting, detergency and foam-building properties. -
Q:
Which values define a C8-C10 APG commercial grade?
A: Confirm the C8-C10 chain range, active matter or solids, pH and test concentration, residual fatty alcohol, ash, viscosity and appearance. Also state whether the offer is a standard alkaline-surfactant grade or a lower-pH specialty grade. -
Q:
How should 50%, 60% and 70% APG offers be compared?
A: Compare cost and dosage on an active-matter basis, then account for viscosity, pumpability, storage temperature and freight. A higher-solids grade carries less water but may need more temperature or dilution control before use. -
Q:
Is C8-C10 Alkyl Polyglucoside the same as Decyl Glucoside CAS 54549-25-6?
A: Not necessarily. CAS 68515-73-1 is a C8-C10 oligomeric APG/UVCB material, while decyl glucoside may be listed separately as CAS 54549-25-6 or described as a narrower C10 product. Confirm the alkyl-chain distribution, active matter and supplier specification before substitution.
