March 13 2024 – Dr. Luise Berger

1. DESCRIPTION OF SUGAR AND COCO SURFACTANTS:

Sugar and coco surfactants are mild, biodegradable surfactants derived from natural sources such as coconut oil and sugar. They are known for their gentle cleansing effect and are often used in skin care products. These surfactants are particularly skin-friendly and are therefore ideal for gentle cleansing without irritating or drying out the skin.

2. EFFECT OF SUGAR AND COCO SURFACTANTS:

Sugar and coconut surfactants work on the skin's surface to gently remove dirt, oil and makeup. They help to effectively cleanse the skin without disturbing the skin's natural protective barrier. These surfactants are particularly suitable for sensitive skin types and help to keep the skin soft and supple.

3. USE OF SUGAR AND COCO SURFACTANTS:

These surfactants are found in a variety of skin care products, including facial cleansing foams, shower gels and shampoos. They are a popular choice in natural and organic skin care products because they provide gentle cleansing and are suitable for all skin types.

4. SKIN PROBLEMS AGAINST WHICH SUGAR AND COCONUT SURFACE AGENTS ARE EFFECTIVE:

  • Sensitive skin and skin irritations
  • Dry skin and lack of moisture
  • General skin impurities and pollution

WHAT ARE SUGAR AND COCOSIDES?

Sugar and cocosides are a special type of surfactants that are derived from natural sources and play an important role in skincare and facial cleansing products. These surfactants are mainly made from coconut oil and sugar, with the manufacturing process based on the esterification of fatty acids from coconut oil with sugar molecules.

The production of sugar and cocosides typically starts with coconut oil, which is rich in medium-chain fatty acids. These fatty acids are isolated and then chemically combined with sugar molecules, sourced from natural sources such as glucose or sucrose. The result is a non-ionic surfactant that has excellent cleansing properties but is also milder and more skin-friendly than many conventional surfactants.

NATURAL SOURCES OF SUGAR AND COCOSIDES

The production of sugar and cocosides is based on natural raw materials, mainly coconut oil and sugar obtained from various sources.

Coconut Oil:

Coconut oil is a key ingredient in the production of cocosides. It is extracted from the flesh of coconuts grown in tropical regions such as Southeast Asia, Africa, and parts of South America. Coconuts are known for their high content of medium-chain fatty acids, which form the basis for the production of cocosides.

Sugar:

Sugar, the other essential component of sugar and cocosides, is extracted from plants such as sugarcane or sugar beets. Sugarcane is widely grown in tropical regions, while sugar beets are mainly cultivated in temperate climates. The sugar obtained from these plants is then integrated into the surfactant production process.

These natural sources are renewable and provide a sustainable basis for the production of sugar and cocosides. The use of coconut oil and sugar from environmentally friendly and renewable sources underscores DOC.BERGER | EFFECT's commitment to sustainability and environmental protection.
