2-Hydroxypropyl Trimethylammonium Chloride

Description:
2-Hydroxypropyl Trimethylammonium Chloride, with the CAS number 2382-43-6, is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its cationic nature due to the presence of a positively charged nitrogen atom bonded to three methyl groups and a hydroxypropyl group. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid or a viscous liquid, soluble in water and various organic solvents, which makes it useful in a range of applications. It exhibits surfactant properties, allowing it to function effectively as a conditioning agent in personal care products, such as shampoos and skin creams. Additionally, it can act as an antimicrobial agent, enhancing the preservation of formulations. The presence of the hydroxypropyl group contributes to its compatibility with skin and hair, making it a popular choice in cosmetic formulations. As with many quaternary ammonium compounds, it may have specific handling and safety considerations, including potential irritancy, which necessitates appropriate precautions during use.
