Polyquaternium-67
High-performance cationic cellulose conditioner providing superior slip, detangling, and antistatic control. Works in clear systems, enhances silicone/fragrance deposition. Use at 0.2-0.5% in shampoos, 0.1-0.2% in cleansers.
Polyquaternium-67 is a high-performance cationic cellulose polymer engineered for superior hair conditioning without buildup.
This quaternized hydroxyethylcellulose represents a significant advancement over traditional conditioning agents like PQ-10 and cationic guar. Research shows that at just 0.3% concentration in clear shampoos, PQ-67 delivers superior wet-comb metrics while maintaining complete formula clarity. Its unique coacervate formation upon dilution enhances deposition of beneficial ingredients including silicones and fragrances.
PQ-67 is specifically designed for modern clear formulation systems. provide exceptional silicone deposition in 2-in-1 shampoos, while maintaining the volume and body that consumers desire.
Usage: Cationic conditioning agent for shampoos, 2-in-1 products, conditioners, body washes, and facial cleansers. Provides slip, detangling, antistatic control, and enhances deposition of actives.
How to mix: - Hydrate in water phase before adding surfactants to prevent fisheye formation - Add to formulation at room temperature with moderate stirring - Compatible with anionic, nonionic, and amphoteric surfactant systems - Forms beneficial coacervates upon dilution for enhanced deposition
Usage rate: - Clear shampoos: 0.2-0.5% (optimal 0.3%) - 2-in-1 shampoos: 0.20-0.25% - Body washes/facial cleansers: 0.10-0.20% - Light leave-in sprays: 0.10%
Product Description: White to off-white powder or granules, water-soluble polymer with characteristic mild odor. Forms clear to slightly hazy solutions depending on concentration.
Solubility: Readily soluble in water. Insoluble in oils and organic solvents. Hydrates to form clear viscous solutions.
