Polyquaternium-11, commercially known as Gafquat™ 755N polymer by Ashland Specialty Chemical, is a versatile conditioning agent and fixative that enhances a wide array of personal care products. With its superior lubricity and ease of use, Polyquaternium-11 elevates both hair and skin formulations, making it an essential ingredient in high-quality personal care solutions.
In hair care, Polyquaternium-11 is used extensively in products such as lotions, mousses, gels, sprays, and shampoos. It functions as a conditioner and styling auxiliary, offering numerous benefits. Its conditioning properties are well known for forming clear, non-tacky films that enhance hair manageability without causing build-up. This surfactant improves wet and dry compatibility, adds gloss, smoothness, and manageability to hair, and contributes to a stable lather in shampoos and other cleansers, ensuring a luxurious user experience. Additionally, Polyquaternium-11 prevents electrostatic charging, resulting in smooth, well-behaved hair while adding body and maintaining a soft, natural feel.
For skin care, Polyquaternium-11 finds applications in soaps, shaving foams, and body lotions. It significantly enhances the tactile experience by providing smoothness and conditioning during application, acting as a lubricant to improve the spreadability and feel of skin care products. The surfactant leaves a silky skin feel, promoting a pleasant and lasting experience for users.
Polyquaternium-11’s compatibility with non-ionic, anionic, and amphoteric surfactants makes it highly adaptable across various formulations. Its ability to form continuous, non-tacky films ensures reliable performance in diverse applications, ranging from decorative cosmetics and makeup to facial and body care products.
The recommended usage level for Polyquaternium-11 ranges from 0.25% to 4.0%, depending on the specific formulation requirements. The product is available as a high-viscosity liquid and is approved for use in both the EU and US markets, meeting stringent quality and safety standards.
