RQB-90VG Alcohol Ether Carboxylic Acid (AEC)

Solving the Supply Chain Challenge for Premium Formulations

Are you facing long lead times or high costs with Akypo RO 90 VG or Marlowet 4539?

RQB-90VG is an advanced nonionic-anionic amphoteric surfactant specifically engineered as a direct, high-performance alternative. Featuring a unique unsaturated alkyl chain structure, it offers the identical chemical stability and superior mildness required for high-end personal care products, ensuring your production remains stable and cost-effective.

Why Technical Leads and Procurement Managers Choose RQB-90VG

1. Exceptional Mildness & Irritation Mitigation

In the Personal Care Industry, RQB-90VG is prized for its "crypto-anionic" nature. It provides strong detergency while significantly reducing the skin and eye irritation typically associated with primary surfactants like SLES. It is a cornerstone for "Sulfate-Free" and "Sensitive Skin" formulations.

2. Superior Thickening and Foam Stabilization

Unlike traditional surfactants that struggle in complex systems, RQB-90VG acts as a powerful viscosity modifier. It enhances foam volume and creates a creamy, dense lather that consumers associate with luxury cleansing products.

3. Unsaturated Alkyl Chain Advantage

The unsaturated alkyl chain ensures that RQB-90VG remains a transparent liquid at room temperature, making it easier to pump, dose, and blend than saturated ether carboxylates which often require heating before use.

4. Hard Water & Electrolyte Resistance

It maintains peak performance in hard water and high-electrolyte environments, ensuring your shampoo or facial cleanser remains clear and effective regardless of local water conditions.

Application

Transforming the sensory experience of cleansing products.

• Facial Cleansers: Used as a co-surfactant to provide a "soft" after-feel. It prevents the tight, dry sensation often left by harsh soaps.

• Premium Shampoos: Functions as a foam booster and conditioning agent. It improves the deposition of active ingredients like silicone or natural oils on hair fibers.

• Body Washes: Enhances the rheological profile (texture) of the formula, making it feel rich and luxurious while ensuring easy rinsing.

• Sulfate-Free Systems: Acts as an essential secondary surfactant to build viscosity and improve cleaning performance in PEG-free or sulfate-free formulas.

Technical Specifications

For the Business Owner, RQB-90VG means optimized margins and supply security.

For the Technical Lead, it means a reliable tool to achieve superior foam and viscosity.
For the Procurement Head, it means a seamless transition from global brands to a high-quality alternative.
