Polyquaternium-10
Polyquaternium-10
KCI Polyquta series are composed of high quality cationic hydroxy ethyl cellulose derivatives. These polymers are formed as a result of a reaction of hydroxyethyl cellulose with polimeric quaterner ammonium salts and a epoxide that includes trimethylammonium group.
Unique:
It is very substantive on hair.
Benefits
- Gives a velvet touch on hair and skin by providing texture.
- Provides compability and easy styling.
- Humidifies, gives luster.
- Protects and repairs damaged hair.
- Protects hair from UV and is suitable for dried hair.
- Protein like effect from cationic natural cellulose.
Additional Properties:
Polyquat Polymers act as thickeners and maintain stability in a wide PH range and in the existence of inorganic salts.
Polyquat polymers are unlike cationic surfactants, cationic poles of these molecules are not binded to oil molecules; they are bounded to the polymeric structure of hydroxyethyl cellulose. For these reasons polyquat polymers are effective in hair conditioners, hair styling lotions, hair straighteners, detangling sprays cleansing products, hair wave sets, shaving preparations, bath oils and soaps and skincare preparations.
