Description

Chloroallyl methenamine chloride (CAS 51229-78-8 ), commercially recognized as the cis-form of Quaternium-15, is a formaldehyde-releasing biocide used to control microbial growth in water-based industrial and personal care formulations. It functions by generating controlled levels of formaldehyde in situ, providing broad-spectrum preservation against bacteria, yeasts, and molds. In coatings and adhesives, it protects water-based systems from microbial spoilage. This includes latex paints and construction adhesives during storage and in-can use. Personal care formulators incorporate it as a preservative in rinse-off and leave-on products such as shampoos, conditioners, and lotions. Consistent antimicrobial efficacy across a broad pH range is a key selection criterion for these applications. Sealant and elastomer manufacturers use it to extend the shelf life of aqueous dispersions susceptible to bacterial contamination. It also finds use in metalworking fluids and industrial water treatment where microbial control directly impacts process integrity. The chemical is supplied as an aqueous solution with active concentrations typically in the range of 96–98%. It is available in solid form or as diluted liquid grades to suit various manufacturing needs. The product is offered in technical and cosmetic-grade specifications to meet the requirements of both industrial and personal care end markets.
