Laurdimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed wheat protein

Laurdimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed wheat protein (CAS 130381-06-5), also referred to commercially as Laurdimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed wheat, is a cationic conditioning agent derived from wheat protein hydrolysate.

Where is Laurdimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed wheat protein used?

• Hair care: deposits on damaged or chemically treated hair to improve combability and reduce static in rinse-off and leave-in formulations
• Shampoos and conditioners: restores a smooth surface feel
• Protein treatment masks: immediate conditioning and longer-term moisture retention through the peptide fraction
• Textile processing: fiber softener and antistatic agent
• Home care and industrial cleaning: surface wetting and mild conditioning of treated substrates
• It is modified with a quaternary ammonium group to combine substantivity to negatively charged surfaces with moisturizing peptide functionality.

Good to know: Buyers should confirm active content and hydrolyzed protein molecular weight range with their chemical suppliers; these parameters affect conditioning performance and formulation stability.
