  • Applications

    Lactamidopropyl trimonium chloride is a quaternary ammonium salt that functions as a cationic surfactant and conditioning agent. In practice it is used in cosmetics and personal care products (shampoos and conditioners) for conditioning and improved combability; in household and fabric care products as a softening and anti-static additive; in textile processing to impart softness and static control; in coatings, paints, and printing inks as a surfactant and pigment dispersion/leveling aid; and in polymer formulations as an emulsifier or dispersion aid to improve wetting and compatibility.
