Polyquaternium 24

Polyquaternium-24 (CAS 98616-25-2), commercially known as Quatrisoft LM 200 and Amerchol LM 200, is a quaternized cellulose polymer used in personal care and industrial formulations.

It functions as a conditioning agent, film former, and rheology modifier, delivering substantivity to hair and skin surfaces through its cationic charge for superior performance.

In shampoos and conditioners, it deposits onto negatively charged hair fibers to reduce static, improve combability, and enhance wet and dry feel for the end user.

Skin care formulators incorporate it into lotions and serums where its film-forming behavior supports moisture retention without leaving a heavy or greasy residue on the skin.

In textile processing, it modifies fiber surfaces to improve softness and antistatic performance during finishing operations. This ensures high-quality results in industrial manufacturing.

Paper and leather manufacturers use it to enhance surface uniformity and improve the interaction between substrates and subsequent coating layers during the production process.

Polyquaternium-24 is supplied as an aqueous solution, typically at concentrations around 10%. It is available in cosmetic-grade specification suitable for personal care applications.

Product performance is aligned to established supplier standards. Bulk supply is standard for industrial buyers, with smaller quantities available for formulators in development.
