We supply Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate powder as INNO KWLG-95, a cosmetic-grade high-active amino acid surfactant for mild cleansing and creamy foam.
Key Benefits of KWLG-95 Sodium Lauroyl Glutamate powder
- KWLG-95 is a high-active powder, so formulators can build concentrated cleansing bases without bringing unnecessary water into the batch. This gives direct control over the water phase, total surfactant solids and final product format.
- Its mildly acidic, skin-compatible cleansing profile is designed for sensitive-skin, baby-care and premium rinse-off concepts. It cleans without stripping natural skin oils and leaves a soft, moisturized feel after rinsing.
- The foam is dense, fine and creamy, with the mousse-like texture expected in premium facial cleansers and cleansing pastes. It rinses clean without the tight, squeaky finish associated with harsher surfactant systems.
- KWLG-95 works with anionic, amphoteric and nonionic co-surfactants. Formulators can adjust foam, viscosity and after-feel without rebuilding the entire surfactant system around one narrow compatibility window.
- The grade is made from plant-derived starting materials, is readily biodegradable and is supported by INNO research patents. It is suitable for liquid, paste and powder cleansing formats.
| Acid value | 100-135 mgKOH/g |
| Loss On Drying | ≤5% |
| Heavy Metals (PPM) | ≤20 |
| Arsenic Content (PPM) | ≤2 |
Recommended applications
- Use KWLG-95 in concentrated facial-cleansing pastes when the formula needs high active matter, dense cream-like foam and a soft rinse without taking up water-phase space.
- It is a strong base for powder cleansers, cleansing tablets and other low-water formats because the powder grade lets the formulator control hydration during manufacture and use.
- In premium shampoo, body wash, hand wash and shaving cream, blend it with amphoteric or nonionic co-surfactants to tune foam, viscosity and after-feel.
- The grade can also be developed into toothpaste and selected household cleansing products where mildness, biodegradability and stable foam are part of the brief.

Choosing between related INNO products
Choose KWLG-95 when you need high active matter, low supplied water and full control over the water phase. Choose INNO KWLG-25 when liquid handling and faster batching are more important.
Frequently asked questions
How can excess air be kept out of a KWLG-95 batch during powder addition?
Keep the powder feed below the liquid surface, avoid a deep vortex, and use only enough circulation to wet each addition. Allow a short deaeration hold before final viscosity adjustment so entrained air is not mistaken for incomplete dissolution.
What should incoming QC check before releasing a KWLG-95 lot to production?
Confirm the lot identity and sealed-pack condition against the purchase specification and COA, then run the site’s standard visual and small-batch dissolution checks. Escalate caking, abnormal odor or a material change in dissolution behavior before the lot reaches the main vessel.
Which process settings must be locked before KWLG-95 moves from lab mixing to a plant vessel?
Fix the wetting method, addition rate, mixing intensity and hydration endpoint before scale-up. Then repeat the viscosity and foam checks at plant shear, because a larger vessel can entrain more air and leave partially hydrated powder unnoticed.
Which production data should be recorded during the first commercial KWLG-95 batch?
Record powder addition time, hydration time, batch temperature, mixing speed, deaeration time and stabilized viscosity. Keep the same checkpoints for the next lots so a raw-material change can be separated from a process change.
How should purchasing compare the true cost of KWLG-95 powder with a liquid grade?
Compare cost on delivered active matter, then include freight for supplied water, powder handling time, batch energy, cleaning and yield loss. A price-per-kilogram comparison alone does not show the cost of the finished surfactant base.
Why work with INNO?
INNO manufactures both powder and liquid glutamate grades. We can help set the active-matter target, processing route and foam profile, then provide samples and current technical documents.
