A Comprehensive Industry Guide to High-Purity Bio-Based Non-Ionic Surfactants
Sucrose Monododecanoate (CAS No. 25339-99-5 / 37318-31-3), commonly designated as Sucrose Monolaurate, represents a pinnacle in green carbohydrate-based surfactant chemistry. Formed via the controlled mono-esterification of natural sucrose with high-purity dodecanoic (lauric) acid, this non-ionic surfactant exhibits an exceptional hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB value of approximately 15–16), rendering it an ultra-mild, highly effective emulsifier, solubilizer, and microemulsion stabilizing agent.
Information Gain Insight: Unlike ethoxylated surfactants (e.g., Polysorbate 20, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil), Sucrose Monododecanoate produces zero trace 1,4-dioxane or residual ethylene oxide contaminants, fulfilling stringent European COSMOS standards and global ESG cosmetic regulatory compliance.
| Physicochemical Property | Sucrose Monododecanoate (Sucrose Monolaurate) | Polysorbate 20 (Tween 20) | Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) |
|---|---|---|---|
| CAS Number | 25339-99-5 / 37318-31-3 | 9005-64-5 | 151-21-3 |
| HLB Value | ~15.0 (High Hydrophilic) | ~16.7 | ~40.0 (Anionic) |
| Source / Origin | 100% Bio-based (Sugar Cane + Coconut/Palm Oil) | Synthetic Ethoxylated Polyol | Petrochemical / Oleochemical Anionic |
| Cytotoxicity & Ocular Irritation | Extremely Low (Zein Score < 5%) | Moderate (Eye sting risk) | Severe Irritant (Zein Score > 65%) |
| Biodegradability (OECD 301B) | Readily Biodegradable (> 92% in 28 days) | Moderate Biodegradability | Variable / Ecotoxic to aquatic life |
| 1,4-Dioxane Risk | 0 ppm (Absolute Zero Risk) | Trace Risk (Requires stripping) | Not Applicable |

Why Tier-1 Global Enterprises Direct-Source Sucrose Monododecanoate from JIMPOCHEM
Located in the Jinan Chemical Industry Park, Shandong Province, our 500-acre mega-facility integrates direct raw material purchasing channels for non-GMO sucrose and high-grade lauric acid, guaranteeing batch price stability and mitigating global price volatility.
Our state-of-the-art automated chemical reactors utilize low-temperature enzymatic and eco-friendly catalytic synthesis. This prevents thermal degradation, minimizes mono-/di-ester variance, and yields crystalline or pasty Sucrose Monododecanoate with purity exceeding 95% mono-ester content.
Every lot undergoes rigorous HPLC, GC-MS, and heavy metal testing. Our end-to-end batch digital tracking system links raw material origin, reactor batch logs, certificate of analysis (CoA), and logistics documentation for total audit transparency.
Whether you require 25kg sample drums for formulation R&D or multi-ton FCL shipments, JIMPOCHEM provides flexible OEM/ODM packaging, customs assistance, and direct sea/air freight to major international ports worldwide.
Targeted Solution Deployments for Premium Personal Care, Biomanufacturing, and Food Formulations
Sucrose Monododecanoate acts as a primary bio-surfactant in crystal-clear cleansing oils, micellar waters, and barrier-repair creams. It effectively emulsifies skin sebum without stripping epidermal lipids or disrupting the natural stratum corneum barrier.
In biopharmaceutical downstream processing, high-purity Sucrose Monolaurate acts as a non-ionic stabilizing agent to prevent monoclonal antibody (mAb) aggregation and interfacial denaturation during transport and storage.
As a natural food additive emulsifier (E473), Sucrose Monododecanoate stabilizes flavor oils in carbonated beverages, prevents fat crystallization in confectionery, and improves crumb structure in bakery products.
Acts as an eco-friendly wetting agent and leaf-penetration enhancer for organic agricultural sprays, replacing nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEs) with zero bioaccumulation toxicity.
