Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Chloride

Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Chloride (CTAC) is a cationic surfactant and quaternary ammonium compound characterized by a long hydrophobic cetyl (C16) alkyl chain and a positively charged ammonium head group. It appears as a white to pale yellow powder or flakes, soluble in water, and exhibits strong surface-active properties. CTAC is widely used in cosmetics, personal care, and industrial applications for its excellent conditioning, antistatic, emulsifying, and disinfectant capabilities. It functions primarily as a fabric softener, hair conditioner, and antimicrobial agent.

Sodium Xylene Sulphonate

Sodium Xylene Sulphonate (SXS) is a white to off-white crystalline powder or granule with the chemical formula C₈H₇NaO₃S. It is a highly water-soluble anionic surfactant commonly used as a hydrotrope to enhance the solubility and stability of other surfactants and ingredients in detergent and cleaning formulations. Packaged in 25kg bags, SXS improves the clarity of liquid detergents and personal care products while boosting performance in hard water and various industrial applications.
