  • Applications

    Benzyldimethyltetradecylammonium chloride (CAS 139-08-2) is a quaternary ammonium surfactant with a long alkyl chain, functioning primarily as a cationic surface-active agent. In real-world applications, it is commonly used as a surfactant and emulsifier in household and industrial cleaning products; as a conditioning surfactant and surface-active agent in cosmetics and personal care products (examples include shampoos, conditioners, and cleansers); as a wetting, leveling, and dispersing agent in coatings and inks; as an emulsifier/stabilizer in polymer and latex formulations; as an antimicrobial component in hard-surface cleaners and disinfectants (subject to local regulations); and as a surfactant additive in adhesives to improve wetting and adhesion properties.
