Galaxy 111 is a non-ionic surface active agent derived from diethanolamine and coco fatty acids. It is mainly used as a viscosity booster and foam stabilizer. It provides excellent viscosity building and foam stabilization in anionic surfactant based systems such as shampoos, hand washes and body cleansers. The reduced water solubility and melting point of diethanolamides effectively control the dissolution rate in systems such as toilet bowl blocks, synthetic soap bars and various tablet formulations.
