Description

(p-Chlorobenzyl)Dimethyl[3-[(1-Oxooctadecyl)Amino]Propyl]Ammonium Chloride is a quaternary ammonium salt with a long-chain fatty amide group, combining cationic and lipophilic properties. This unique structure makes it highly effective as a specialty surfactant and conditioning agent, offering substantive benefits to various substrates. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, textile, and specialty chemical industries for its emulsifying, antistatic, and softening functionalities.

Application

• Hair Conditioners & Cream Rinses: Acts as a substantive conditioning agent, providing excellent detangling, softness, and manageability to hair.
• Fabric Softeners & Textile Auxiliaries: Imparts a soft, smooth hand feel to fabrics and exhibits effective antistatic properties.
• Cosmetic Emulsions: Serves as an emulsifier and cationic stabilizer in creams, lotions, and other leave-on personal care products.
• Industrial Surfactants: Used in specialty formulations requiring cationic surface activity, such as in asphalt emulsifiers or corrosion inhibitors.
• Biocide & Disinfectant Synergist: May enhance the efficacy of other antimicrobial agents in certain disinfectant and preservative systems.

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 compound is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container must be kept tightly sealed after initial opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture which may affect quality.
