Bardac® 2280 Antimicrobial contains the active substance Didecyldimethyl- ammonium chloride (DDAC). The active is a cationic molecule offering good surfactant properties and can be formulated together with non- ionic and/or amphoteric surfactants. DDAC has antimicrobial efficacy against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeast, algae and enveloped viruses. High antimicrobial efficacy is maintained even at low temperatures and in the presence of organic soil, such as blood and protein. In formulated products, DDAC is stable over a wide range of pH levels and can be used in a number of applications such as food processing, institutional, veterinary, healthcare areas, home care, product preservation and laundry sanitisers. This “fourth” generation quaternary ammonium compound shows excellent tolerance to hard water and different pH levels.

Barquat® BAC-50 Antimicrobial contains the active substance C12-C16 Alkyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride (ADBAC). The active is a cationic molecule offering good surfactant properties and can be formulated together with non-ionic and/or amphoteric surfactants.

Cola®Quat SME is a cationic surfactant designed to neutralize a wide range of odors. The ingredient functions by complexing or neutralizing specific organic molecules and reducing their concentration in the vapor phase. Its low active level and full solubility in water makes it ideal for consumer deodorizer applications such as space deodorizers, carpet deodorizers, hard surface deodorizers, kitty litter and pet care. The ingredient may be used in a variety of personal care, household and industrial applications to reduce unpleasant odors.

CATION SF-10 is a high concentration type cationic agent. It imparts high softness and antistatic properties.CATION SF-10 is an imidazoline-type cationic surfactant, and is suitable as a base material for household fabric softeners. This product imparts excellent softness and an antistatic property to textiles such as cotton and polyester fabrics.Compared to conventional quaternary ammonium salt type softeners, CATION SF-10 minimally affects water absorbency of the textiles.

CATION SF-75PA is a plant-derived agent. It imparts high softness and water absorbency.CATION SF-75PA is an imidazoline-type cationic surfactant produced by fatty acid made from palm oil, and is suitable as a base material for household fabric softeners. This product imparts excellent softness and an antistatic property to textiles such as cotton and polyester fabrics. Compared to conventional quaternary ammonium salt type softeners, CATION SF-75PA minimally affects water absorbency of the textiles.

Cationic surfactant - monoalkyl quat - very easy to handle that permits to obtain clear fabric softeners.

SurPhase GEL Feel and “cut” of an asphalt mastic or coating is critical to roofers. A product that is too thick – or too thin – can cause performance issues, as well as complaints and product returns. The SurPhase GEL line of patented, highly-efficient surfactants are designed to provide stable and consistent rheology in your asphalt cutback-clay systems.

OXIDET® DM-4 is an amine oxide that can be used as a fragrances solubilizer and thickener in bleaches based on sodium hypochlorite. It is a non-ionic/cationic surfactant. OXIDET® DM-4 is an excellent foaming stabilizer in blends of anionic and amphoteric surfactants. Its addition increases the detergency level of the mixture. It can be used in washing-up liquids and in cleaners in general, but its main application is in bleaches based on sodium hypochlorite. OXIDET® DM-4 is stable in sodium hypochlorite solutions at basic pH. In perfumed and thick bleaches it is used as fragrance solubilizer and thickener. It is especially advisable in bleaches where the sodium hypoclorite concentration is below 30 g/L, due to its superior effectiveness as thickener when compared to coconut or lauryl amine oxides. Those products are used when the active chlorine concentration is higher. OXIDET® DM-4 is also stable in front of electrolytes and hard water.

Burcoterge™ BCY is a high performance cationic/nonionic surfactant system for water-based cleaners and degreasers. It provides superior penetration and wetting/spreading.
