Cationic Surfactants
- Cationic surfactants carry a positive charge on their hydrophilic head group, which is typically a quaternary ammonium group.
- These are used in Fabric Softeners, Hair Conditioners, Disinfectants, and Corrosion Inhibitors due to their antimicrobial and conditioning properties.
- Cationic surfactants exhibit strong adhesion to negatively charged surfaces.
- SSPL offers Quaternary Ammonium Compounds / Ester Quaternaries.
-
Alkyl quaternary ammonium compounds
- Alkyl Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (Quats) are cationic surfactants with a positively charged nitrogen atom surrounded by alkyl groups. They are widely known for their antimicrobial, conditioning, and antistatic properties, making them essential in various applications across industries.
- This class of surfactants frequently exhibits Anti-microbial property, Surface Activity, Conditioning effect, Anti-static property along with a broad compatibility with other surfactant classes.
- They are used in various applications like household cleaners, industrial disinfectants and healthcare products.
- SSPL offers a range of alkyl quaternary compounds all varying in chain lengths depending on the desired properties.
-
Di-alkyl quaternary ammonium compounds
- Di-Alkyl Quaternary Ammonium Compounds (Di-Alkyl Quats) are cationic surfactants with two long alkyl chains attached to a quaternary nitrogen atom. These compounds are highly effective as biocides, surfactants, and antistatic agents, making them ideal for applications requiring antimicrobial efficacy, hydrophobic properties, conditioning and stabilisation property.
- These surfactants find use in various applications like Water treatment, Healthcare products, Industrial disinfectants, Laundry products, etc.
- SSPL offers di-alkyl quaternary ammonium compounds for a range of applications.
-
Ester quaternaries
- Ester Quaternaries are cationic surfactants derived from fatty acids and quaternized amines, containing ester linkages.
- These environmentally friendly surfactants are primarily used as fabric softeners and conditioning agents due to their excellent biodegradability and performance.
- Ester quats are especially useful in textile processing for reducing microfibril static and interfiber friction.
- SSPLs ester quats are derived from natural raw materials and hence are a preferred choice for formulations emphasizing performance and biodegradability, catering to both consumer and industrial applications
- SSPL offers the following range of products to suit the required softening, conditioning, and antistatic need
