About PEG-5 Tallow Benzonium Chloride

PEG-5 Tallow Benzonium Chloride is a quaternary ammonium salt in which R can be described as an alkyl group derived from tallow; the number 5 in the name indicates the average number of added ethylene oxide units, and within the same base structure, changing this number may also change water miscibility and the formula's viscosity and spreadability.[1] In cosmetics, it is used to reduce static electricity that causes hair strands to lift or stick together and to lower surface tension so raw materials wet, mix, and spread evenly.[2]
