Lauralkonium chloride

Description:
Lauralkonium chloride, with the CAS number 19486-61-4, is a quaternary ammonium compound commonly used as a surfactant and antimicrobial agent. It is characterized by its long hydrophobic alkyl chain, which typically consists of lauryl (dodecyl) groups, and a positively charged quaternary nitrogen atom. This structure imparts both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties, making it effective in reducing surface tension and enhancing solubility in various formulations. Lauralkonium chloride exhibits antimicrobial activity, making it suitable for use in disinfectants, preservatives, and personal care products. It is also known for its ability to condition hair and skin, contributing to its use in cosmetic formulations. The compound is generally stable under normal conditions but should be handled with care due to its potential irritant properties. Additionally, it is important to consider its environmental impact, as quaternary ammonium compounds can be toxic to aquatic life. Overall, lauralkonium chloride is valued for its multifunctional properties in both industrial and consumer applications.
