About Polyquaternium-76

Polyquaternium-76 is a quaternary ammonium salt.[1] The number 76 after Polyquaternium is only an identification number used to distinguish different polyquaterniums; it does not indicate the content 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 static that causes hair strands to lift or cling together, to form a thin film on the surface of the skin, hair, or nails after application, and to reduce tangling and roughness for smoother-looking hair.[2] It is also used to help hold the desired hairstyle in place.[2]
