Description

(Dichlorobenzyl)Dimethyltetradecylammonium Chloride is a high-purity quaternary ammonium compound (quat) valued for its potent antimicrobial and surfactant properties. This chemical is essential for formulators requiring a reliable and effective active ingredient for disinfectant and sanitization products. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the industrial biocides, institutional cleaning, and water treatment sectors for its broad-spectrum efficacy and formulation stability.

Application

• Primary active ingredient in industrial and institutional disinfectant formulations for hard surface cleaning.
• Key component in algicides and microbiocides for cooling tower water and industrial process water treatment.
• Used as a sanitizing agent in food processing facilities and agricultural applications.
• Incorporated into textile finishing treatments to impart antimicrobial properties to fabrics.
• Employed in oilfield chemicals for microbial control in drilling and production fluids.
• Acts as a phase transfer catalyst in specific organic synthesis reactions within fine chemical manufacturing.
• Formulated into preservative systems for paints, coatings, and polymer emulsions.

Quality Control

Our (Dichlorobenzyl)Dimethyltetradecylammonium Chloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications, including identity, purity, and active content. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting these results is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your formulation requirements.

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 material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and performance.
