It is widely known across the natural beauty landscape as a gentle alternative to silicones on the skin and scalp and is often used in consciously created products for sensitive skin or baby products.
Unlike it's alternative - synthetic surfactants and silicones - it comes without concern around its effect on hormonal balance, or potential endocrine disruption.
Derived from oils such as rapeseed & canola, behentrimonium chloride is created by chemically modifying fatty acids through a quaternization reaction, to form a positively charged quaternary ammonium compound, enhancing its conditioning and detangling properties in hair care products.
