CAS 4080-31-3

Quaternium 15

Description:

Quaternium-15, with the CAS number 4080-31-3, is a quaternary ammonium compound commonly used as a preservative and antimicrobial agent in various cosmetic and personal care products. It is characterized by its ability to release formaldehyde, which acts as a biocide, helping to prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms. This compound is typically found in products such as shampoos, conditioners, lotions, and creams. Quaternium-15 is known for its conditioning properties, providing a smooth feel to hair and skin. However, due to its formaldehyde-releasing nature, it has raised concerns regarding skin sensitization and potential allergic reactions in some individuals. Regulatory agencies have established guidelines for its safe use, emphasizing the importance of concentration limits in formulations. Overall, while Quaternium-15 is effective in preserving product integrity, its use is subject to scrutiny, prompting manufacturers to explore alternative preservatives that may pose fewer health risks.
