Description

Allylbis(2-Hydroxyethyl)Tetradecylammonium Chloride is a quaternary ammonium compound (quat) with a unique structure combining a long alkyl chain with allyl and hydroxyethyl functionalities. This matters as it provides a versatile surfactant and antimicrobial agent with potential for chemical reactivity via its allyl group, offering dual functionality in formulations. It is needed by manufacturers in the personal care, textile, and industrial biocides sectors seeking specialized cationic surfactants for conditioning, softening, or antimicrobial action.

Application

• As a cationic surfactant and conditioning agent in hair care and skincare rinse-off products.
• As a fabric softener and antistatic agent in textile and laundry care formulations.
• As an intermediate for synthesizing more complex quaternary ammonium compounds with tailored properties.
• As a potential biocide or preservative in industrial water treatment or material protection.
• As an emulsifier and dispersant in specialty chemical and agrochemical formulations.
• In research and development for novel surfactants and polymerizable monomers.
