Description

Ethanaminium, N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-[2-[(2-hydroxyethyl)[2-[(2-hydroxyethyl)[2-[(1-oxooctadecyl)oxy]ethyl]amino]ethyl]amino]ethyl]-2-[(2-hydroxyethyl)(1-oxooctadecyl)amino]-N-methyl-, methyl sulfate (salt) is a high-purity, quaternary ammonium compound valued for its exceptional cationic and surface-active properties. This specialty chemical is engineered to deliver superior performance as a conditioning and antistatic agent in demanding industrial and personal care formulations. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the hair care, textile, and polymer industries seeking to enhance product softness, manageability, and process efficiency.

Application

• Hair Conditioners & Rinse-Off Products: Primary ingredient for providing excellent detangling, softness, and shine due to its strong affinity for keratin.
• Fabric Softeners & Textile Auxiliaries: Imparts a soft, smooth hand-feel to fibers and fabrics while reducing static cling.
• Antistatic Agents for Polymers: Used in plastic and fiber production to prevent dust attraction and electrostatic discharge.
• Personal Care Leave-On Products: Key component in creams, lotions, and styling aids for long-lasting conditioning effects.
• Industrial Emulsifiers & Dispersants: Aids in the stabilization of oil-in-water emulsions and pigment dispersions in various systems.
• Corrosion Inhibition: Can be formulated into specialty coatings and treatment baths for metal surface protection.

Quality Control

Our production of this quaternary ammonium compound adheres to strict cGMP guidelines to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and purity suitable for cosmetic and industrial applications. Every lot undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for assay and impurity profiling, to confirm identity and meet stringent specifications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical quality attributes are provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect performance and stability.
