polyDADMAC

PolyDADMAC (CAS 26062-79-3), a cationic polyelectrolyte supplied as an aqueous solution, is a high-charge polymer used across water treatment, personal care, and industrial processing.

It functions by neutralizing negatively charged particles and surfaces, enabling coagulation, flocculation, and surface conditioning at low dosage levels for various industrial applications.

In municipal and industrial water treatment, it acts as a primary coagulant or coagulant aid to destabilize suspended solids and colloidal matter, reducing turbidity ahead of filtration.

Personal care formulators use it to condition and deposit active ingredients onto hair and skin surfaces, particularly in shampoos, conditioners, and rinse-off products for consumers.

In pulp and paper manufacturing, it improves retention of fine particles and fillers during sheet formation, directly impacting yield and drainage efficiency in the production line.

Textile and leather processors apply it to fix dyes and surface treatments, improving color uptake and reducing effluent load, which enhances the overall sustainability of the process.

This product is supplied as a liquid aqueous solution, with active content typically ranging from 20% to 40% by weight. Grades are differentiated by molecular weight—low, medium, and high.

Molecular weight determines charge density and performance in specific applications. Technical and industrial grades are standard; some personal care grades are available to meet requirements.
