Description

Collagens, Hydrolyzates, n-3-(Dodecyldimethylammonio)-2-Hydroxypropyl, Chlorides is a cationic quaternary ammonium derivative of hydrolyzed collagen, designed to impart substantive conditioning and film-forming properties. This specialty surfactant is engineered to deliver enhanced substantivity to hair and skin, improving manageability, softness, and providing a protective barrier. It is a critical functional ingredient for formulators in the personal care, cosmetics, and advanced hair treatment industries seeking natural-derived conditioning agents with cationic charge for superior performance. The compound is identified by CAS No. 132538-89-7.

Application

• Hair Care Products: As a primary conditioning agent in shampoos, conditioners, hair masks, and leave-in treatments for detangling, anti-static, and shine enhancement.
• Skin Care & Cosmetics: Used in creams, lotions, and serums to improve skin feel, provide moisturization, and enhance the substantivity of other active ingredients.
• Color Protection Systems: Incorporated into color-treated hair products to improve dye retention and protect hair fibers from damage.
• Professional Salon Products: A key ingredient in high-performance salon-grade treatments and reconstructors for damaged hair.
• Men's Grooming Products: Used in styling gels, creams, and beard conditioners for conditioning without heaviness.
• Pharmaceutical Topicals: Potential use in medicated creams and ointments as a conditioning and delivery-enhancing base.

Quality Control

Our cationic collagen derivatives are produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure consistent performance, including parameters for cationic nitrogen content, degree of substitution, and peptide chain profile. We provide comprehensive Certificates of Analysis (COA) with each shipment, detailing specifications relevant to personal care applications. Our manufacturing adheres to cGMP guidelines suitable for cosmetic and topical pharmaceutical ingredients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption and caking. Store away from incompatible materials.
