Specialty Cationics

Our range includes:

EMPIGEN^® Anti-bacterial and Softening Agents

EMPIGEN^® BAC 50

Benzalkonium Chloride

Readily biodegradable cationic surfactant with biocidal properties. Compatible with amphoteric and nonionic surfactants. Incompatible with anionic surfactants. Readily soluble in water, lower alcohols, glycols and glycol ethers. Stable both in acidic and alkaline media. Best efficacy around pH 9. Used in cooling water and swimming pools. Very effective against gram-positive bacteria.

EMPIGEN^® BAC 80

BenzalkoniumChloride (and)glycol ether

Readily biodegradable cationic surfactant with biocidal properties. Compatible with amphoteric and nonionic surfactants. Incompatible with anionic surfactants. Readily soluble in water, lower alcohols, glycols and glycol ethers. Stable both in acidic and alkaline media. Best efficacy around pH 9. Used in cooling water and swimming pools. Very effective against gram-positive bacteria.

EMPIGEN^® HBC 40

Hydroxyethyl Laurdimonium Chloride

A readily biodegradable cationic surfactant that is compatible with anionics. Improves emulsification, detergency, thickening and foaming. Optimizes surface tension reduction. Enables adhesion to some surfaces. Gives some conditioning behavior.
