Uses:
Polyquaternium-22 is used in hair care products: relaxers, bleaches, dyes, shampoos, conditioners, styling products, and permanent waves.
Polyquaternium has a close relationship with our hair. Hair is made up of a biopolymer (keratin). Therefore, as a cosmetic raw material, Polyquaternium is indispensable in hair care products.
Polyquaternium used in hair care products can be classified into water-soluble and non-water-soluble according to their solubility. Therefore, different types of Polyquaternium are used in different hair products.
- Contributes luster and a soft, silky feel; provides rich, creamy foam to shampoos.
- Provides excellent slip, lubricity, and snag-free wet compatibility without excessive buildup.
- Imparts excellent dry compatibility.
- Panel studies document excellent hair softness and wet hair feels during washing, rinsing, and after rinsing.
- Help hold curls without flaking.
- 1.0% as a product in shampoo and conditioner; 3.0% as a product in other formulations.
Polyquaternium-22 is used in skin care products: moisturizing creams, lotions, bath gels, liquid soaps, soap bars, shaving products, and deodorants.
- Imparts a smooth, velvety feel; reduces tightness after drying skin.
- Provides excellent moisturization.
- Contributes lubricity, which can help make skincare products easier to apply.
- Liquid cleansing products acquire richer foam with improved stability.
- Suggested starting concentration: 1.5% as a product.
