About PEG-5 Ditridecylmonium Chloride
PEG-5 Ditridecylmonium Chloride is an ethoxylated quaternary ammonium compound in which n averages 5.[1] The number 5 in the name indicates the average number of ethylene oxide units added. With the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formulation’s viscosity and spreadability. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce static that causes hair strands to lift or stick together and to lower surface tension so ingredients can wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
