About Benzethonium Chloride
Benzethonium Chloride is a quaternary ammonium salt.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms, reduce noticeable unpleasant odors, and slow deterioration during storage by inhibiting microbial growth in the product.[3] It is also used to lower surface tension so ingredients wet, mix, and spread evenly.[3] In Europe, when used as a preservative, it is permitted at up to 0.1%.[2]
