Hydroxypropyl guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride

Hydroxypropyl guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride (CAS 71329-50-5 ), commercially known as Jaguar C 162 or Jaguar C 16, is a cationic guar derivative used across personal care and industrial markets. It deposits a conditioning film on negatively charged surfaces such as hair, skin, and fibers through electrostatic attraction, delivering substantivity that non-ionic polymers cannot match. In shampoos, conditioners, and body washes, it reduces combing friction and improves wet detangling without weighing hair down. Skin care formulators incorporate it into lotions and cleansers. It builds a moisturizing, film-forming layer that persists after rinsing. Textile processors apply it as a softening and antistatic agent during finishing treatments for natural and synthetic fabrics. In paper manufacturing, it functions as a wet-end additive that improves fiber retention and surface charge management. This versatile polymer is supplied as a free-flowing off-white to cream powder. Grades vary by degree of substitution and charge density, which directly affects performance in low-pH or high-surfactant formulations. This is a key selection factor for chemical formulators. Cosmetic-grade material is the standard commercial form, with technical grades available for textile and paper applications. It remains a staple for achieving superior sensory profiles in formulations. Contact us for supply of Hydroxypropyl guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride Request Quote
