MG-60 is a starch-derived carbohydrate, comprising of maltooligosyl glucoside and hydrogenated starch hydrolysate. It is a multifunctional ingredient that imparts a smooth skin texture while protecting skin from irritation, inflammation and promoting moisture retention all while improving foam to deliver a fine, long-lasting and rich lather with a luxuriant after-feel.
 
In oral care, MG-60’s low cariogenicity and soothing effects on the irritation caused by SDS make it especially suitable for toothpastes, enhancing protecting actions while being gentle to teeth and gums.
 
These unique characteristics make it the ideal addition to an array of cleansing products for skin, body, hair, and oral care.
