Polyquaternium is a neologism used to emphasize the presence of quaternary ammonium centers in the polymer. Being positively charged, polyquaterniums are capable to neutralize the negative charges of most shampoos and hair proteins and help hair lie flat. As a result, polyquaterniums have found particular application in a wide range of hair products such as conditioners, shampoo, hair mousse, hair spray, and hair dye as well as other personal care products such as personal lubricant and contact lens solutions.
International Nomenclature for Cosmetic Ingredients (INCI) has approved at least 40 different polymers under the polyquaternium designation. Alfa Chemistry offers various of polyquaterniums, including polyquaternium-51 (cas 125275-25-4), polyquaternium-28 (cas 131954-48-8), polyquaternium-47 (cas 197969-51-0), polyquaternium-39 (cas 25136-75-8), polyquaternium-6 (cas 26062-79-3), polyquaternium-37 (cas 26161-33-1), polyquaternium-7 (cas 26590-05-6), polyquaternium-11 (cas 53633-54-8), polyquaternium-22 (cas 53694-17-0), polyquaternium-1 (cas 68518-54-7), polyquaternium-10 (cas 68610-92-4), polyquaternium-4 (cas 92183-41-0), and polyquaternium-16 (cas 95144-24-4).
