Description

Dodecylethyldimethylammonium Ethyl Sulphate is a quaternary ammonium compound (quat) widely valued for its potent cationic surfactant and antimicrobial properties. This compound is essential for formulators requiring a stable, effective ingredient with excellent compatibility in various systems. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the personal care, textile, and industrial biocides sectors for its conditioning, antistatic, and disinfecting capabilities.

Application

• Hair Conditioners & Cream Rinses: Acts as a primary cationic surfactant, providing excellent detangling, softness, and manageability to hair.
• Fabric Softeners & Antistatic Agents: Imparts a soft hand feel to textiles and reduces static cling in synthetic fibers.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Disinfectants: Serves as a key active ingredient in hard surface cleaners and sanitizers for its broad-spectrum efficacy.
• Emulsifier & Stabilizer: Used in the formulation of creams, lotions, and other emulsion-based products.
• Antimicrobial Preservative: Helps prevent microbial spoilage in water-based industrial fluids and some personal care formulations.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed as a biocide and surfactant in drilling and production fluids.
