  • Applications

    Diallyldimethylammonium chloride (CAS 7398-69-8) is a reactive monomer used to synthesize water-soluble cationic polymers. In practice, these polymers serve as flocculants and coagulants in municipal and industrial water treatment, as retention and drainage aids in papermaking, and as binding or thickening components in coatings, inks and adhesives. It also acts as a building block for conditioning polymers used in cosmetics and personal care, providing substantivity to hair and skin. In textiles, cationic polymer finishes based on this monomer improve dye uptake and wetting. Overall, its positive charge enables enhanced particle aggregation, adhesion, and performance in a range of industrial formulations.
