  • Applications

    Distearyl epoxypropylmonium chloride (CAS 29681-28-5) is a quaternary ammonium salt with two distearyl groups and an epoxypropyl moiety, typically considered a cationic surfactant with surface-active and polymer-interaction properties. In practice, its applications commonly include use as a surfactant and additive in coatings and inks to improve wetting, pigment dispersion, and formulation stability; as a component in adhesives and during polymer processing to enhance compatibility between aqueous and hydrophobic phases; as a conditioning agent or emollient in cosmetics and personal care, and in textile applications; use in cleaning and household formulations as a surfactant and surface-active additive; and, because of the epoxy group, potential covalent bonding with resin or polymer matrices to form durable surface attachments, supporting surface modification or durable coatings. Use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
