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.
