ColaQuat SLCC
DESCRIPTION
Cola®Quat SLCC is a vegetable derived long alkyl chain cationic designed for hair care
applications. As a highly substantive material, Cola®Quat SLCC provides lubricity and
detangling to wet hair while at the same time effectively building volume and sheen.
With our 5 years of quat manufacturing experience and using the highest quality raw
materials, Cola®Quat SLCC is characteristically low color, low odor and reliably
consistent batch to batch for the Personal Care Market.
Cola®Quat SLCC is compatible with anionics and is easily formulated into conditioning
or all-in-one shampoo formulations. It is ideally suited for use on sun damaged and over-
processed hair or hair made brittle from excessive blow-drying.
Cola®Quat SLCC is based on the renewable vegetable lipid found in soybean oil,
making it a uniquely natural compliment for use in hair conditioners and rinses, skin
crèmes and lotions. Cola®Quat SLCC imparts non-greasy detangling, improves dry
comb and fly away, while building volume and sheen, especially with colored, permed,
sun dried and damaged hair. In other applications, use Cola®Quat SLCC as a cationic
emulsifier, and as an anti-static and softening agent in crèmes, lotions and other
personal care products.

APPLICATIONS
Cola®Quat SLCC is an ideal component in a wide variety of hair and skin care
applications, including conditioning shampoos, hair conditioners, hairsprays, styling aids,
moisturizing hair finishes, creams and lotions.
FORMULATIONS
Damaged hair, especially permed hair can be difficult to comb, especially when wet.
Hair Conditioner products are generally oil-in-water emulsions in which the lipophilic
conditioning quaternium ammonium salt is the active ingredient. The conditioning quat,
along with the fatty alcohols impart wet-comb performance to the formulation. The
superior substantive and lubricating properties of Cola®Quat SLCC over other
conditioning cationics significally improves wet comb performance of these formulas,
and others of their type, especially on damaged hair.
