Descripción

General description

Rhamnolipid biosurfactants are glycolipids containing L-rhamnose and β-hydroxyl fatty acids, with amphiphilic properties (both hydrophilic and hydrophobic). This rhamnolipid product has been purified from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and contains a mixture of rhamnolipids with fatty acids of varying tail length. They are highly biodegradable, non-toxic, and renewable. Functional roles include bioactive, surfactant and emulsifier. Rhamnolipids provide good detergency/foaming/wetting, stable microemulsion formation, and solubility under high alkalinity. They are mild with skin-friendly attributes. Surfactant and emulsion properties of rhamnolipids include reducing the surface tension of water to 25 to 40 mN/m, having a CMC of 5-380 mg/L, and decreasing the interfacial tension of oil and water to <1 dyne/cm. Rhamnolipid biosurfactants are superior to synthetic surfactants for several reasons: their CMC is 10-100 times lower than that of traditional chemical surfactants (meaning much less material is required to achieve reductions in surface tension/interfacial tension); they are easily biodegradable with very low toxicity (having higher EC50 values); they are not as affected by temperature, pH and salinity; and they are sustainably produced.
