"stearamidopropyl" means the propylamide of stearic acid (octadecanamide), "trimonium" means a trimethylammonium quaternary salt
Stearylamidopropyl trimonium methosulfate is used in cosmetic formulations. It acts as an antistatic agent (reduces static charges by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface, for example of hair) and as a hair conditioning agent (makes hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume).
