Lauroyl Glutamic Acid

Lauroyl Glutamic Acid (CAS 3397-65-7 ) is an N-acyl amino acid produced by condensing lauric acid with glutamic acid. It functions as a mild surfactant, emulsifier, and conditioning agent across personal care and food-related applications. In skin and hair care formulations, it acts as a gentle cleansing and conditioning agent compatible with sensitive-skin products such as facial cleansers, shampoos, and body washes. Its emulsifying and wetting properties support stable oil-in-water emulsions. In creams and lotions, it helps to disperse active ingredients evenly across the formulation. Food-grade material is evaluated as an emulsifier and surface modifier in certain processed food systems where amino acid-derived ingredients are preferred. In functional cosmetic formulations, it contributes to pH buffering, helping formulators maintain target pH ranges without additional acidulants. This versatility makes it a valuable component for high-performance personal care products. Lauroyl Glutamic Acid is typically supplied as a white to off-white powder or crystalline solid. Food-grade and cosmetic-grade specifications are the most commonly available, with material sourced to meet specific purity requirements. Bulk quantities are generally offered in fiber drums or multi-layer bags, with smaller packaging available for formulation and QA sampling purposes. This ensures safe handling and storage for industrial and laboratory use alike. Contact us for supply of Lauroyl Glutamic Acid Request Quote
