About Benzalkonium Chloride
Benzalkonium Chloride is a mixture of alkylbenzyldimethylammonium chlorides.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms, reduce static electricity that causes hair strands to lift or stick together, and reduce noticeable unpleasant odors.[2] It is also used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms in products and delay deterioration during storage, and to lower surface tension so ingredients wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
