Description

Dimethylditetradecylammonium Chloride is a high-purity quaternary ammonium compound (quat) valued for its potent cationic surfactant properties. This chemical is essential for formulating effective biocides, phase transfer catalysts, and antistatic agents across multiple industries. Key industrial users include manufacturers of disinfectants, fabric softeners, personal care products, and specialty chemical intermediates seeking reliable performance and supply chain stability.

Application

• Biocide & Disinfectant Formulations: Acts as a powerful active ingredient in industrial, institutional, and agricultural disinfectants and sanitizers.
• Fabric Softeners & Conditioners: Serves as a primary cationic surfactant to impart softness and antistatic properties to textiles.
• Phase Transfer Catalyst (PTC): Facilitates reactions between reagents in immiscible phases in organic synthesis and polymer manufacturing.
• Personal Care Products: Used as a conditioning agent and preservative in hair care and skincare formulations.
• Antistatic Agent: Incorporated into plastics, coatings, and films to prevent static charge accumulation.
• Emulsifier & Dispersant: Aids in the stabilization of emulsions and suspensions in various chemical processes.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed as a corrosion inhibitor and biocide in drilling and production fluids.
• Paper & Pulp Industry: Functions as a retention aid, drainage aid, and biocide in papermaking processes.

Quality Control

Our Dimethylditetradecylammonium Chloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity, identity, and performance. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting assay, moisture content, and other critical parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
