Description

1-Propanaminium, 3-Amino-N,N,n-Trimethyl-, Chloride, Polymer With (Chloromethyl)Oxirane is a cationic polymer belonging to the class of polyquaternium compounds, specifically known as Polyquaternium-2. This specialty polymer is valued for its strong cationic charge and film-forming properties, making it an effective conditioning and antistatic agent. It is primarily utilized in the personal care and cosmetic industries to enhance product performance and sensory attributes.

Application

• Hair Care Formulations: Used as a conditioning agent in shampoos, conditioners, and hair masks to improve manageability, reduce static, and impart a soft, smooth feel.
• Skin Care Products: Incorporated into creams, lotions, and cleansers for its skin-conditioning and moisturizing effects.
• Color Cosmetics: Functions as a film-former and stabilizer in mascaras, eyeliners, and foundations to enhance wear and texture.
• Antistatic Agent: Applied in hair styling products and treatment serums to control flyaways and improve combability.
• Industrial Applications: Potential use as a flocculant or retention aid in water treatment and paper manufacturing processes due to its cationic nature.

Quality Control

Our Polyquaternium-2 is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistency in cationic charge density, viscosity, and active content, meeting the specifications required for cosmetic and personal care applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, residual monomers, and physical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure containers are sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which may affect product performance.
