About Quaternium-8
Quaternium-8 is a quaternary ammonium salt.[1] Because Quaternium-8 has both water-attracting and oil-attracting portions, its cleansing power, foam, and feel may vary according to the concentration and the surfactants used with it. In cosmetics, it is used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms, reduce static electricity that causes hair strands to lift or stick together, and reduce tangling and roughness in hair to leave it smooth and manageable.[2]
