Behenoyl pg-trimonium chloride

CAS: 69537-38-8

Overview

Behenoyl PG-Trimonium Chloride (CAS 69537-38-8 ), commercially available as AKYPOQUAT 131 and QUARTAMIN BTC 131, is a quaternary ammonium conditioning agent derived from behenic acid.

It functions primarily as a cationic surfactant and surface modifier, delivering substantivity and conditioning performance across rinse-off and leave-on formulations for various industries.

In hair care, it deposits onto negatively charged hair fiber during rinsing, reducing static, improving combability, and contributing to a smooth sensory profile in conditioners and treatment masks.

Skin care formulators incorporate it into emulsions where cationic charge aids emulsion stabilization and enhances skin feel. It is a versatile ingredient for high-performance personal care products.

In textile processing, it conditions fiber surfaces during finishing stages, improving softness and reducing friction in synthetic and natural fabric treatments for industrial manufacturing.

Industrial and institutional cleaning formulations use it as a conditioning surfactant where surface modification of treated substrates is required alongside standard cleaning action.

Behenoyl PG-Trimonium Chloride is typically supplied as a paste or waxy solid, reflecting its high molecular weight and long-chain fatty acid origin for stable chemical processing.

Standard commercial grades are formulated to defined active content levels suited for cosmetic and industrial applications. Cosmetic-grade material is the predominant market form available.
