Description

Bis-2-Hydroxyethyl-Kokosalkylbenzylammoniumchlorid CAS NO 60227-27-2 is a quaternary ammonium compound (quat) derived from coconut alkyl groups, functioning as a cationic surfactant and biocide. Its molecular structure provides excellent surface activity, emulsifying properties, and antimicrobial efficacy, making it a versatile ingredient for demanding industrial and institutional formulations. This product is essential for manufacturers in the cleaning, disinfection, and personal care industries seeking a reliable, broad-spectrum active agent.

Application

• Disinfectant & Sanitizer Formulations: A key active ingredient in hospital-grade disinfectants, surface cleaners, and food-contact sanitizers due to its potent bactericidal and fungicidal properties.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in floor cleaners, hard surface detergents, and vehicle washes for its combined cleaning and antimicrobial action.
• Algaecides and Biocides: Effective in controlling algae and microbial growth in industrial water systems, cooling towers, and recreational water.
• Textile and Leather Processing: Acts as a softener, antistatic agent, and dyeing auxiliary, providing a soft hand feel and improved processing.
• Personal Care Products: Employed as a conditioning agent and preservative in hair conditioners and skin creams at approved concentrations.
• Oilfield and Mining Chemicals: Serves as a corrosion inhibitor, biocide, and surfactant in drilling fluids and process water treatment.
