THE STORY OF NANOQUAT 39
Nanoquat 39: The Hydrating Conditioning Polymer for Soft, Smooth Hair & Skin
Nanoquat 39 is a high-performance conditioning polymer known for its excellent film-forming, moisture-retaining, and smoothing properties. It enhances softness, boosts hydration, and improves manageability, making it ideal for haircare and skincare formulations that demand long-lasting conditioning without heaviness.
Developed Through Advanced Copolymer Technology for Balanced Performance
Nanoquat 39 is created through the controlled copolymerization of acrylic acid and methacrylamidopropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (MAPTAC). This precise polymer engineering results in a highly stable, water-soluble conditioning agent with exceptional compatibility across multiple formulation types.
Superior Conditioning, Moisture Lock-In & Improved Texture
Nanoquat 39 functions as a conditioning agent, film former, and moisture-retention polymer.
It enhances wet and dry combability, reduces frizz, and boosts softness in haircare. In skincare, it provides smooth glide, improved hydration, and a lightweight conditioned feel. Its excellent film-forming ability ensures long-lasting performance without buildup.
Reliable, Mild & Highly Effective Across Haircare & Skincare Systems
Used in shampoos, conditioners, styling gels, body washes, lotions, and hydrating skincare formulas.
Recommended usage: typically 0.5–5%, depending on conditioning and viscosity needs.
Store in tightly sealed containers in cool, dry conditions.
Nanoquat 39 is mild, non-irritating, water-soluble, and globally approved, offering dependable conditioning with excellent moisture retention.
