This gentle surfactant, based on sucrose and coconut oil fatty acids, is a very mild hydrophilic emollient and co-surfactant. 
 
It is particularly well suited for use in creams, body lotions, shampoos, shower gels, and facial cleansing gels. In shampoos and shower gels, the moisturizing sugar surfactant improves the feel of the skin during and after washing, reduces the irritating or degreasing effect of other surfactants, and increases the viscosity of surfactant mixtures. Furthermore
 
Sanfttensid is particularly noticeable in shampoo due to the foam, which gains density, stability, and creaminess from the sugar surfactant. Sanfttensid is therefore highly recommended for sensitive skin or dry, brittle hair.
Sanfttensid is purely plant-based, free from PEG and preservatives, and has irritation-reducing and softening properties. 
 
It is Ecocert-compliant.
 
Processing:
Sanfttensid is homogeneously dispersed in a 40-60 °C warm water phase. Since the paste becomes liquid at temperatures above 25°C and the sucrose cocoate/water mixture can become inhomogeneous during storage, it should be heated to 40°C in a water bath and homogenized before use.
 
Application concentration:
0.5-4% in shampoos and shower gels
2-4% in emulsions
