CAS number: 112-00-5; Dodecyltrimethylammonium chlorides
DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.
The prefix "Laur-" denotes the fatty acid component lauric acid (dodecanoic acid, also called lauric acid) in the molecule. "Trimonium..." refers to the quaternary trimethylammonium salt of lauric acid. Lauric trimonium chloride is used in cosmetic formulations. The lauric acid derivative acts as a preservative (inhibits the development of microorganisms in cosmetic products and preserves them) and as an antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electric charge on the surface, e.g. of hair).
