Didecyl dimethyl ammonium chloride belongs to Cationic surfactant.

Nature appearance: white to slightly yellow paste; or colorless to slightly yellow liquid, or solid.

Solubility: slightly soluble in water. It is soluble in organic solvents such as benzene, acetone and ethanol.

Hygroscopicity In the air, it is easy to absorb moisture.

Stability Stable. High thermal decomposition.

Hazard Solid form: flammable and irritating. The harmful products of combustion are carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and so on. Strong irritation to skin, eyes and respiratory system. With strong oxidants, it will cause combustion.

Ecology may be harmful to the environment, and special attention should be paid to water bodies.

Features Excellent antistatic, sterilization, antibacterial, anticorrosion, corrosion inhibition, solubilization, emulsification, and dispersion properties. Light fast. Acid resistant. Resistant to hard water. The bactericidal performance is better than dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride.
