  • Applications

    Ricinoleamidopropyltrimonium chloride (CAS 127311-98-2) is a cationic surfactant derived from castor oil, commonly used as a conditioning agent and surface-active additive in cosmetics and personal care products (for example in shampoos and conditioners), while also functioning as a surfactant in household cleaning formulations. It is often evaluated as a textile finishing additive to improve fabric softness, and can be used in coatings and inks to enhance wetting and dispersion of pigments. In polymer and plastics manufacturing, it may act as an emulsifier or surfactant to stabilize emulsions during processing.
