Basic Info
Behentrimonium Chloride (CAS 17301-53-0): Premium Cationic Conditioning Agent for Advanced Personal Care Formulations
Behentrimonium Chloride (Docosyltrimethylammonium chloride) is a high-performance quaternary ammonium compound engineered specifically for personal care, hair treatments, and cosmetic emulsions. Characterized by its long C22 alkyl chain, this ingredient offers exceptional substantivity to keratinous surfaces compared to short-chain analogs.
In modern hair care formulations, it functions as a primary conditioning agent, anti-static compound, and secondary emulsifier. By neutralising negative surface charges on damaged hair cuticles, it substantially reduces combing friction, minimizes flyaways, and enhances overall hair smoothness and hair manageability.

To meet rigorous international market requirements and simplify safety evaluations for formulation chemistry, our product is manufactured under standardized industrial compliance procedures.
ISO 9001:2015 & ISO 14001: Standardized production and quality management systems ensure batch-to-batch consistency and low environmental impact.
REACH Registration: Full compliance for bulk distribution within the European Union market.
Cosmetic Safety Standard Alignment: Complies with EU Cosmetics Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 for safe maximum usage levels in rinse-off and leave-in hair products.
Documentation Support: Full regulatory technical dossiers available upon request, including Safety Data Sheet (SDS) according to GHS standards, Certificate of Analysis (COA), BSE/TSE-Free Certificates, and Vegan/Cruelty-Free Statements.
Product Packaging
Our in-house quality control laboratory subjects every batch of CAS 17301-53-0 to multi-stage analytical inspection prior to release, ensuring reliable performance in downstream production.
Assay & Active Matter Content: Verified via two-phase potentiometric titration to confirm active cationic concentration remains strictly within specification.
Free Amine & Amine Salt Determination: Monitored via wet chemical analytical methods to eliminate unpleasant odor profiles and ensure optimal formula purity.
pH Value Testing (1% aqueous/isopropanol solution): Maintained between 5.0 and 7.0 to ensure compatibility with typical skin and hair acidity levels.
Color & Clarity Evaluation: Spectrophotometric color grading (Gardner scale) to safeguard batch consistency for clear or light-colored hair care products.
Heavy Metals & Impurities Screening: Tested using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) / ICP-OES to guarantee trace elemental safety meets global cosmetic standards.
Behentrimonium Chloride is widely integrated across professional and consumer personal care lines:
Rinse-Off Hair Conditioners & Deep Repair Masks: Provides high deposition efficiency, instant detangling, and long-lasting softness on wet and dry hair shafts.
Leave-In Conditioners & Detangling Sprays: Restores hair slip without leaving sticky or heavy residue when formulated at lower active levels.
Anti-Frizz Treatments & Serums: Neutralizes static charges caused by environmental friction, keeping cuticle layers smooth under varying humidity levels.
Emulsification Systems: Works synergistically with fatty alcohols (such as Cetearyl Alcohol or Cetyl Alcohol) to construct stable lamellar gel structures in hair creams and conditioners.
Recommended Usage Levels:
Rinse-off hair products: 1.0% – 5.0%
Leave-in hair products: 0.5% – 2.0% (Note: Formulators should adjust usage levels according to regional regulatory concentration caps).
FAQ
A: Behentrimonium Chloride features a longer C22 hydrocarbon chain, whereas Cetrimonium Chloride has a C16 chain. The longer chain length provides stronger substantivity, superior detangling efficiency, and reduced skin irritation potential, making it preferred for high-end or intensive repair conditioners.
A: As a cationic surfactant, Behentrimonium Chloride can form insoluble complexes with anionic surfactants (such as SLS or SLES). It is best used in non-ionic, amphoteric, or purely cationic base formulations.
A: The material is supplied in standard 25 kg fiber drums or reinforced bags. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated warehouse away from direct sunlight, moisture, and incompatible oxidizing agents. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use.
