Usage

Description

POLYQUATERNIUM-1 is a cationic polymer that acts as an antimicrobial preservative. It is commonly used in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, to prevent the growth of microorganisms and ensure product safety and stability.

Uses

Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
POLYQUATERNIUM-1 is used as an antimicrobial preservative for rabbit ocular surface study on polyquad-preserved travoprost/timolol, benzalkonium chloride-preserved travoprost/timolol, and latanoprost/timolol in fixed combinations. This application helps maintain the sterility and safety of the ocular solutions, ensuring their effectiveness and reducing the risk of infections.
Used in Cosmetic Industry:
POLYQUATERNIUM-1 is also used as a conditioning agent in hair and skin care products. It helps to improve the texture, manageability, and appearance of hair, as well as provide a smooth and soft feel to the skin. Its cationic nature allows it to form complexes with anionic ingredients, enhancing the overall performance of the formulations.
