Description

Dodecyltrimethylammonium Isopropyl Sulphate is a quaternary ammonium salt surfactant with a unique chemical structure that provides excellent surface activity and compatibility. This compound is valued for its potent cationic properties, making it a highly effective ingredient for formulations requiring strong emulsification, antistatic effects, and antimicrobial activity. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the personal care, textile processing, and industrial cleaning sectors for creating high-performance specialty chemicals.

Application

• As a primary cationic surfactant and emulsifier in hair conditioners, cream rinses, and other personal care products.
• As an antistatic agent and softener in textile manufacturing and fabric treatment processes.
• As a key component in industrial and institutional cleaning formulations, including disinfectants and sanitizers.
• As a phase transfer catalyst in organic synthesis and specialty chemical manufacturing.
• As an emulsifier and dispersant in agricultural adjuvants and pesticide formulations.
• In the paper industry as a retention aid and drainage improver.
• For research and development purposes in novel surfactant chemistry and material science.

Quality Control

Our Dodecyltrimethylammonium Isopropyl Sulphate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, identity, and key 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 material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and performance.
