At NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD., we are fascinated by the science that makes cosmetic ingredients effective. Docosyltrimethylammonium Methyl Sulphate (BTMS) is a prime example of how precise chemistry translates into tangible benefits for consumers, particularly in hair and skin care.

The core of BTMS's functionality lies in its chemical structure. As a quaternary ammonium compound, it possesses a positively charged nitrogen atom permanently bonded to four organic groups, including a long docosyl (C22) chain and three methyl groups, with a methyl sulfate anion. This unique structure makes it a cationic surfactant. The positive charge is key to its interaction with negatively charged surfaces like hair and skin. When applied, the positively charged BTMS molecules adsorb onto the hair shaft, forming a smooth, conditioning layer. This is why it is a highly effective hair conditioner raw material.

The long docosyl chain provides emolliency and lubrication, contributing to the silky feel and manageability of hair. It also acts as a primary emulsifier, capable of stabilizing oil-in-water emulsions. This dual action – conditioning and emulsifying – makes BTMS 50 formulation particularly advantageous. It allows formulators to create stable, rich products that deliver both conditioning benefits and a pleasing texture.

In skin care, the same principles apply. BTMS conditions the skin, providing a soft, smooth, and non-greasy feel. As an emulsifier, it helps to create stable creams and lotions, ensuring that the active ingredients are evenly distributed and readily absorbed. Understanding the docosyltrimethylammonium methyl sulphate properties is fundamental for harnessing its full potential.

NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is a trusted docosyltrimethylammonium methyl sulphate manufacturer that ensures the highest standards of purity and efficacy. When formulators choose to buy BTMS from us, they are assured of an ingredient whose chemistry is well-understood and consistently delivered, enabling them to create products that truly perform. The science behind BTMS is what makes it a cornerstone of modern cosmetic formulation.
