Polyquaternium-32

Polyquaternium-32 (CAS 35429-19-7), also referred to by the broader class name Polyquaternium, is a cationic conditioning polymer used in personal care and industrial formulations.

Where is Polyquaternium-32 used?

• Hair care and skin care: deposits a conditioning film on the substrate, improving combability and softness
• Shampoos, conditioners, body washes and leave-in treatments: sensory performance and thickening
• Textile processing: modifies fiber surfaces to improve softness and antistatic behavior during finishing
• Home care and industrial cleaning: adjusts viscosity and enhances surface wetting
• It functions as both a rheology modifier and a surface-active agent.
