Description

Myristalkonium Saccharinate is a quaternary ammonium salt compound synthesized from myristalkonium chloride and saccharin. This specialty chemical is valued for its dual functionality, combining the antimicrobial and surfactant properties of a quat with the sweetening and flavor-masking characteristics of saccharin. It serves as a critical ingredient for formulators in the personal care, pharmaceutical, and industrial preservation sectors seeking multifunctional additives. Its unique profile makes it suitable for applications requiring both biocidal efficacy and taste modification.

Application

• Antimicrobial Preservative in rinse-off and leave-on personal care products like shampoos, conditioners, and liquid soaps.
• Flavor-Masking Agent in oral pharmaceutical formulations, such as medicated mouthwashes, throat sprays, and chewable tablets.
• Conditioning Agent in hair care products, providing antistatic and detangling benefits.
• Industrial Biocide for the preservation of water-based functional fluids, adhesives, and polymer emulsions.
• Active Ingredient in topical antiseptic creams and ointments for skin care.
• Surfactant & Sweetener Synergist in specialized cleaning and sanitizing formulations.

Quality Control

Our Myristalkonium Saccharinate is manufactured under a cGMP-compliant quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, detailing specifications for assay, impurities, and physical parameters. We support compliance with global regulatory frameworks including REACH and can provide documentation for pharmaceutical (USP/EP) or cosmetic (ISO 22716) applications upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect stability and handling properties. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
