Methyl Glucose
Methyl Glucose is a monosaccharide prepared in research laboratory through acid-catalyzed reaction of methanol and glucose. It is widely utilized as a chemical intermediate for generating products or derivatives that serve the cosmetics & personal care industry as thickening agents, humectants, emollients, moisturizers, and emulsifiers. Methyl glucose market products find increasing application in hair care, moisturizing creams, body wash, lotions, baby care, cleansers, and other skincare products. Factors such as non-toxic and non-irritant nature along with their ability to form stable emulsions supporting product demand.
