About Polyquaternium-53

Polyquaternium-53 is a quaternary ammonium polymer of acrylic acid, acrylamide, and methacrylamidopropyltrimonium chloride monomers.[1] The number 53 after Polyquaternium is only an identifying number that distinguishes different Polyquaterniums; it does not indicate the amount or molecular size. Its positively charged portions are used to reduce static electricity in hair and leave a thin film. In cosmetics, it is used to reduce tangling and a rough feel in hair for smoother grooming.[2]
