docosyltrimethylammonium chloride Usage And Synthesis

Description

Docosyltrimethylammonium Chloride, also known as BTAC-228, is a yellow waxlike organic compound with the chemical formula CH3(CH2)21N(Cl)(CH3)3, used as an antistatic agent and, sometimes, a disinfectant. It is commonly found in cosmetics such as conditioners, hair dye, and mousse, as well as in detergents. Laboratory tests have indicated that it does not readily biodegrade.

Occurrence

Behentrimonium chloride, also known as behenyl trimethyl ammonium chloride or docosyltrimethylammonium chloride, is a quaternary ammonium compound. It is derived from canola seeds from the brassica rapa oleifera plant (canola or rapeseed plant), a part of the mustard plant family. This yellow, waxy substance has excellent moisturizing and anti-static properties. It can also be used as a preservative and emulsifying agent and combines easily with other ingredients.

Uses

Behentrimonium Chloride is used as an antistatic agent and, sometimes, a disinfectant. It is commonly found in cosmetics such as conditioners, hair dye, and mousse, and also in detergents.
