Dioctyldimethylammonium chloride

Description:
Dioctyldimethylammonium chloride (DODMAC) is a quaternary ammonium compound characterized by its surfactant properties. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is soluble in water, making it effective in various applications. DODMAC is known for its antimicrobial and biocidal properties, which make it useful in disinfectants, preservatives, and as a phase transfer catalyst in organic synthesis. The compound has a relatively low toxicity profile, but it can be an irritant to skin and eyes. Its structure features two octyl groups attached to a dimethylammonium moiety, contributing to its hydrophobic and hydrophilic characteristics, which enhance its ability to reduce surface tension in solutions. DODMAC is often utilized in formulations for personal care products, industrial cleaners, and as a conditioning agent in hair care formulations. Due to its quaternary nature, it can also interact with various materials, influencing properties such as adhesion and stability in formulations. Proper handling and safety measures are recommended when working with this compound.
