FOAMQUAT RCAS

DKSH

Foamquat RCAS is a concentrated liquid quaternary of an amido amine where the amido group is derived from castor oil. This quat is ideally suited for the industry’s current trend toward formulating with a naturally derived surfactant for skin/hair care products. The presence of the amido group in RCAS enhances substantivity and improves water solubility in cosmetic formulations, unlike regular quaternaries, making it an effective hair conditioner, especially in clear hair rinses and skin lotions. RCAS is an antistatic agent and a good cationic emulsifier for mineral oil, esters, aromatic, aliphatic, and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
