- Strong Compatibility: It can be well - compatible with cationic, non - ionic, and amphoteric surfactants or additives, producing a synergistic effect. It can be used in a variety of formulas to improve the comprehensive performance of products.
- Multiple Functions: It also has the properties of softening, catalyzing, agglomerating, antistatic, sterilizing, and disinfecting, so it is widely used in many fields.
Application Fields
- Industrial Field
- Emulsifier: It is an important component of asphalt emulsifiers and building waterproof coating emulsifiers, which can make asphalt, coatings, etc. form stable emulsions, facilitating construction and application. It can also be used as a silicone oil emulsifier for the emulsification treatment of silicone oil to improve the stability and applicability of silicone oil.
- Textile Auxiliary: As a fabric softener and antistatic agent, it can make the fabric softer and smoother, and at the same time reduce the generation of static electricity, improving the quality and wearing comfort of the fabric.
- Flocculant: In sewage treatment, it is used as a flocculant, which can make the suspended particles in water agglomerate and precipitate, achieving the purpose of purifying water quality.
- Others: In the latex industry, it can be used as an anti - sticking agent and release agent to prevent the adhesion of latex products and improve production efficiency and product quality.
- Medical Field
- Pharmaceutical Excipient: It can be used to prepare pharmaceutical preparations, such as emulsifiers, suspending agents, preservatives, etc., to improve the stability and bioavailability of drugs.
- Therapeutic Effect: Cetrimonium chloride is mainly used to treat cholestasis caused by biliary and intestinal diseases, and also has a certain lipid - lowering effect.
Precautions
- Although cetrimonium chloride has a wide range of applications, attention should also be paid to possible side effects during use, such as digestive system reactions such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, and in severe cases, allergic reactions such as rashes and itching may occur.
- It should be used with caution by those who are allergic to the drug or have severe liver disease and biliary obstruction. In industrial applications, it should also be used in accordance with relevant safety operating procedures to avoid contact with skin and eyes. In case of accidental contact, rinse immediately with a large amount of water.
